Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi, my name's Jory and I'm currently in Fiji making my way west on a comfy and safe Trident Warrior 40. I'm sailing it back to Brisbane, Australia, where I live, as a delivery vua New Caledonia, aiming to arrive before 1 Nov.
As for my sailing experience, I previously owned and refit a C&C 40 that I sailed from California to Australia. I've done a fair amount of bluewater cruising, some ocean racing, skippered sailboats and a commercial fishing boat, and I hold a USCG 100 ton masters license (not currently active).
I'm from Alaska but live in Australia now.
About the boat, the plans, and current crew
usually cleancomfortableshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurelive off the grid
I'm currently in Fiji and planning to depart shortly to Noumea, New Caledonia and then onwards to Brisbane, Australia where I plan to be before 1 Nov.
Get in touch if you're interested in hopping on the boat in Fiji or New Caledonia and sailing to Australia! The plan is to depart now in early Oct from Fiji with a short stay in Noumea, and then depart again mid Oct from New Cal to arrive in Australia at the start of November.
What is expected of the crew
clean & tidyeasy-goingfriendlyrespectfulrarely/unlikely seasickgood communicatorpositive outlook
Looking for 1-2 people who are clean, tidy, respectful and keen to enjoy the passages.
Preferably looking for someone with sailing experience and who doesn't get seasick easily, but anyone with a good attitude is welcome.
