Dear Shipmates
Introduction
I am RYA Cruising Instructor, RYA YM Offshore. Looking for a 1 or 2 crew, kids are welcome, to sail Rustler 31 classic sailboat in the Ionian islands. Start in Preveza. Two weeks starting from Sept. 15 and two weeks starting from Oct. 6. You may join for any week. If you would like to have sailing training, I would be happy to share my experience with you. In case you are interested in celestial navigation, we may practice it as well, sextant is on board.
No commerce, you only contribute to onboard costs: food, fuel, and sometimes parking when we stay in a marina, which will be a very rare thing. In 90% of cases we anchor for a night. Details in PM.
