Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Aloha,

My name's Mel, I’ve crewed through the South Pacific. Starting in Tahiti, sailing all through the Society islands then to Samoa, Fiji & onwards to New Zealand. Then crewed sailing south starting at Newport Beach CA down the coast of Mexico across the sea of Cortez to mainland Mexico & just before Guatemala. I enjoy surfing, diving (PADI advanced diver) spearfishing, fishing & all things water sports. I'm easy going, non smoker, friendly individual who loves to travel. I grew up around power boats & ski’s & later in life fell in love with sailing! I'm also a RYT 200 hour yoga certified teacher for charter boats looking for coaches/health instructors. Thanks for considering me & hope to see you on the water soon!
