Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello, I am a professional travel guide in Europe. My job is seasonal and therefore, I am looking to sail in warmer climates during my offseason Jan-April. I am a hard working enthusiastic sailor who skippers his own boat in fresh water. Learned to sail on the Pacific as a racer and day sailor. Last year I logged 3000 nm between Cabo - Galapagos - Panama on a 72’ racing yacht. I am an easy going guy who has travelled extensively. Excited to glean experience helping crew with others around the world.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I own a Laser 28 and sail her on Lake Okanagan. I am planning to buy a bigger sailboat to spend my winters sailing in blue water. I have raced a bit on coastal waters of BC. Completed my coastal day skipper license with RYA last summer and have my ICC. I am interested in island hopping and able to do passages.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

In addition to gaining experience, I am also looking to learn about boat buying process in foreign countries and ins and outs of anchorages and living aboard for long periods of time.
