Christopher White wants 5 crew for Salamander, Nauticat 521, 18m.
From Cascais, Portugal to Las Palmas, Canary Islands.
October 2018 to November 2018.
A chance to join Salamander on passage to the Canaries from Cascais, Portugal. Leaving Soon! Experience overnight passages, watch-keeping, crossing busy shipping lanes, boat handling, sail trim, navigation, VHF, AIS, Radar, provisioning, boat systems, passage planning and weather forecasting by Iridium satellite. Use the passage for mile building, essential for anyone working towards their RYA Yachtmaster Coastal or Offshore qualifications. Combine the two passages and you will be able to log at least 1,550 nautical miles. Great confidence builders for sailors and non-sailors with all levels of experience including boat owners and partners who have yet to try off-shore sailing and are maybe thinking about or preparing for their own future sailing adventure to far off lands. Experience living on board an authentic ocean-going Round the World yacht. Enjoy your own berth in a shared cabin. This could be ideal if you are uncertain how much time you have available for a long distance sailing experience, or if you wish to increase your skills before looking for a boat in Las Palmas to cross the Atlantic this year.
Christopher is currently based in Lymington, United Kingdom
