# That feeling when you drop anchor in a beautiful new location ... :-)

Fancy a relaxed sailing trip along the Turkish coast in 2024?
Weather permitting, we will sail approximately 4 to 5 hours each day and overnight anchor in bays or more in small marinas. I offer the opportunity to sail along.

I’m living in a serious relationship with a landlubber. My wife honours my dream of sailing. So, if you can respect our relationship and would like to be a member of the crew on my sailboat for a while...
Please read on.

A perfect few days for me out on the water looks like sailing part of the day and experiencing good wind, hoping to rarely fire up the engine. Finding a beautiful bay, anchor down in time for a swim (skinny dipping, where and if it doesn't bother the local population).
I am a recreational sailor/skipper with sailing experience on yachts up to 70 ft and have sailed Norway, France, Italy, Croatia, Turkey, Greece and Transatlantic (Lanzarote to Martinique). From 2009 through 2019 I was President of the Swiss Sailing Club.

The Dufour 350 has three cabins for 2 people each and is approved for a maximum of 8 people. To allow enough privacy, I would like to travel with a total of three (max. four); a "couple" could share a cabin.
The crew can assist with sailing maneuvres, including anchoring or mooring at a marina. I am happy to guide less experienced crew members.
I'm agreeable by nature and open-hearted. Looking to throw the lines, head out, take what comes our way, find an awesome anchorage, and enjoy quiet moments. I'm looking forward to a relaxed trip; short daily legs, explore nature, experience culture and people, swimming.
On my trips I prefer anchorages over marinas and use the engine mainly to get in and out of anchorages, generally prefer quiet over crowded but might be persuaded now and then.

I very much enjoy meeting people from around the world with a range of different sailing and work experiences!

Getting yourself to and from the boat from your own location is your own responsibility. I shall not be responsible for any of your travel costs to and from the boat. Please be capable of covering all of your personal expenses.
This is not a paid position, and we share costs whilst on board.
On board we do all the work together (sailing, cooking, washing dishes, ...).
