Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hey salties! After an 18 month major refit the boat is back in the water for some much anticipated cruising adventures. Upcoming plans are starting to come together - firstly a week or two down in the South West, likely departing 13 Dec, return just before Xmas. February will be some day sailing and weekenders. Late March departing for a 12 week trip of the West Coast returning to Fremantle. Along the way visiting the Abrolhos islands, Ningaloo, Montybellows, Rowly Shoals, Broome, Kimberleys and Scott Reef. Excellent opertunity for someone with a sense of adventure, someone keen to see remote places with epic freediving and a few waterfalls. More suited to down to earth active types. Vessel is comfortable, fast, well equipped and in excellent condition. My experience on the ocean is extensive both professionally and recreationally. Looking for low fuss and good vibes!

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortableluxuriousvery safeshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurelive off the grid

Apart from the above mentioned trips, there will be ongoing 3-4 week return trips from Fremantle every second month until early 2026. April 2026 I will depart for Indonesia and beyond. Ideally prospects for the overseas cruising will have spent time on this vessel by way of the earlier local coastal cruising trips however, not essential.

What is expected of the crew

I expect crew to make an effort in all respects of their position on board. Experience is not a necessity and I am more than happy to invest time into your development so long as it works both ways. Nothing out of the ordinary :)
