Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi there,
My name is Benjamin and I'm 19 years old. I'm an avid sailor who loves being out on the water, facing new challenges and learning new skills. I'm comfortable sailing through big sea states and I'm always up for an adventure.

One of my proudest achievements in sailing was winning the "Grand Prix de France de Course au Large" (an offshore Sailing Regatta with a similar (but longer) route to the Rolex Fastnet) aboard a Volvo60 race boat. But honestly, what matters most to me is being part of a fun, friendly crew and helping out in any way I can. I'm no stranger to working with clients and I always do my best to provide excellent service.

Last summer after graduating i spent 6 month working in on of the leading boatbuilding, design and engineering firm as a intern. It was a memorable experience that though me a great amount about the technical aspects of boats and how they are designed and engineered.

If you need a reliable and enthusiastic sailor on your team, I'd be more than happy to be part of your crew.

Best regards,
Benjamin

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experienceface challengesearn moneygain experience

I'm an 19-year-old who loves sailing. Before starting my studies in medicine (2024), I want to go out and sail. Being part of a team and facing challenges together is something that I enjoy. I'm always keen to learn from seasoned sailors, share my own sailing knowledge, and be a reliable crew member.

Thanks for considering me for a crew position on your boat.

Cheers,
Benjamin
