Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I have a fair amount of experience coastal cruising in the Pacific Northwest and have made one Pacific Ocean passage in 2021(Puerto Vallarta to Hawaii to Washington state). I'm semi retired, like to travel, enjoy adventure with one foot outside my comfort zone up to a certain point. The boat is currently in Baja south of Loreto.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortableusually single handedvisit remote placesseek adventurelearn a languagemulticultural

I'm planning to re-position the boat from Baja to Nuevo Vallarta in November or so. I'm looking for an additional 2-3 crew for the passage. Crew could board either near Loreto at Marina Escondido or in La Paz.
