Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Greetings! My wife and I are looking to continue our sailing experience. We have done some bareboat charters in the Caribbean and Thailand and are looking for more adventures. We are full time travelers, mostly staying at Airbnbs and looking to spend some time sailing during the Summer of 2025 in the Mediterranean. We've both completed ASA 101, 103, 104, and 114 and owned a 30' Catalina in the Chesapeake bay.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

clean & tidyfit & healthyfriendlyorganisedrespectfulconfident swimmergood communicatorno body piercingsno facial piercingsno tattoos at alleager to learn & workcan pay own expensesenjoy cookingdon't mind cleaningcan follow ordersenjoy teachingbuy my own boat one daylearn a language

We are both wanting to get some experience sailing and learn a bit more of the ins and outs of the boat. Happy to take the watch or sail and have experience with both Catamarans and Monohulls in the 30-40' range. We can also both cook and happy to help out when necessary and be part of the crew. We also spent a couple of months learning Spanish and hoping to practice some as well. We have a couple of backpacks and are pretty tidy and capable of paying for our share of the expenses while on the boat.

We are both retired engineers and have been travelling full time for almost 2 years. Mostly slowish travel, visiting places between 1 and 6 weeks and trying to eat and cook healthy, have a regular exercise routine, enjoy meeting others, and learning new things.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

We love to sail but have not spent more than a couple of weeks on a charter yet. We had pondered buying our own boat for full time cruising but trying out crewing first seemed like a better approach. And we get to meet some great people and see some great places.
