Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Recently completed my first Atlantic crossing from Gibraltar to Martinique in the Caribbean. Before that I spent much the fall of 2024 in the Canary Islands, Spain, where I passed my Day Skipper course, theory and practical.

I completed my first long delivery (2200 miles from the Caribbean to Rhode Island) spring of 2024 and am looking for my next mile building opportunity. I have my sights set on a Trans-Atlantic crossing as well as my USCG 25ton and RYA YM Coastal for this year.

Previously I worked on a 42m SY in the Mediterranean for the summer season of 2023. Before that I worked for a sailing charter in Northern California in 2022, and for Hornblower boats from 2018-2020. I grew up sailing in the Northeast United States and am currently racing as the bow/mast on a SC27.

I came from a big family and have worked in hospitality most of my life; I am friendly, outgoing, and a great conflict mediator. I am hard-working and want to attain new skills. Increasingly interested in tinkering.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

earn moneygain experiencetravel

Looking for mile-building opportunities as I work towards my USCG 25 ton Captain's license and RYA Yacht Master. I recently crossed the Atlantic for the first time and am keen to keep honing my skills and learning in real life applications. I'm very interested in opportunities to tighten my sail plan and learn more mechanical and electrical skills.
