Hi, glad that you're here. If you're searching for a fun and helpful crew to join you, you came to the right place.

- route planning / weather
- cooking/baking & provisioning
- cleaning and boat work
- enjoying

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

clean & tidycommittedfriendlyorganisedrespectfultrustworthyconfident swimmerrarely/unlikely seasickgood communicatoreager to learn & workLGBTIQA+ respectfulsense of humorcan pay own expensesenjoy cookingdon't mind cleaninggood with maintenancebuy my own boat one day

I like to keep watch, help with the manoeuvres and study the map and find the best passage for the current wind situation.
Besides the usual yachting topics, I also like to build and fix things (e.g. wood or 3d print) and I can probably also assist you with other technical topics (GPS, Electronics, Onboard computer, Laptop).

Qualifications
- Swiss sailing license (Category D)
- Swiss Certificate of Competence for Ocean Yachting

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

have a holidayshare experiencevisit remote placescareer changegain experiencelearn to sailsustainable travel

It was my girlfriend that brought me into this wonderful world of sailing, which always fascinated me how we can facilitate just wind to move us forward. After dipping the toe in the sea, doing some first passages a while ago, now I can't get enough of it and would like to spend more of my life on see.
