[ closed ] Shaking Down Pure Joy in the Mediterranean Spain to Canary Islands ref 13844
David Poole wants 2 crew for Pure Joy, Seawind 1600, m.
From Valencia, Spain to Palma, Canary Islands.
June 2023 to September 2022.
We will receiving Pure Joy in early June 2023 in the Mediterranean most likely in Valencia, Spain. We need an experienced professional crew (preferably a couple) to help shake her down and get her ready for the ARC 2023. As a brand new boat we anticipate all kinds of technical issues and we have plans for additional equipment to be fitted before we depart for the ARC. We will be travelling out (from the UK) to the boat when we can, at weekends and holidays, but would like full time crew to manage, coordinate repairs, test and keep her in tip top condition as well as have her ready to go when we visit. We anticipate visiting quite frequently and on occasions will bring friends and guests. We anticipate sailing a number of locations in the Westtern Med and ultimately to get to the Canaries but have no firm plans other than to sail the boat hard and make sure she is robust.
