wants 1 crew for Penniless, Beneteau 473, m.

From TBD, Galapagos to Nuku Hiva Island - Anchoring, French Polynesia.

April 2023 to June 2023.

Hello and welcome aboard Penniless - An adventure sailing and diving yacht! We're seeking our last crew member to sail from Galapagos to French Polynesia (FP) with us from April 10th to June 1st or even continue on to July 1st (2023). We start with 6-7 days in Galapagos then we're crossing the Pacific reaching the Marquesas Islands in FP arriving mid May, afterwards we'll slowly move down to Tahiti on June 1st. However we have a spot open in June where we cruise the Taumotu Islands, if you want to be part of the journey for longer. The captain and co-captain are me (Filip, 65 y/o) and my daughter (Sofie, 27 y/o). We are both experienced sailors and SCUBA divers. Sofie's a PADI Divemaster and soon to be biologist who knows lots of marin animal fun facts. As passionate divers, be sure that the crew will be grabbing all the great diving opportunities we can get on the way. We have all the needed dive equipment on board to dive in the water right then and there. Even if you just want to snorkel or maybe go SUP boarding, we've got you covered. It's going to be fun and amazing and we can't wait to get lots of sailing in when crossing the Pacific! Best regards from Sofie and Filip.

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 1): does not matter

Sailing with a Rally: Independent

I'm looking for (gender): either

Cabins/Sleeping : shared cabin-own bunk

Smoking on board: smoking allowed

Total people on board: 6

Crew roles: Have you never sailed before or are you highly experienced? Well you're in luck no matter what! We take on anyone as long as you're outgoing, curious and open-minded and ready for adventure. Of course you have to participate in normal day to day chores on the boat - like cooking and cleaning. Keep in mind that 2-4 days might be dedicated to maintenance since the boat is on a long journey from Europe to Australia, and all crew is expected to help throughout their part of this journey. Cool opportunities for crew: - For non-sailors, you'll be learning to sail by doing with the help from us and perhaps other experienced crew members. - For divers, all you need is to be a certified Open Water diver with proof of this and insurance covering SCUBA diving. - For snorklers who want to be better at free diving, Sofie has tips and tricks she'll happily share with you. - For all crew members, you'll learn safety and accident procedures and CPR (always great to know how to save a life, right?). Does this sound like something you're ready for, then we're ready to hear from you!

Money: daily contribution from crew $49

Travel to and from boat: crew pays
