Nationality: | United States |
Currently based in: | Austin, United States |
Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 420 coastal miles |
Update: However, I have about 2.5 weeks vacation that I have to use by June 28 so looking to crew during that period without having to telecommute. Looking to gain experience by crewing preferably on a Cat as I will be buying one in the near future. I have my basic keel boat and a lot of research time spent. Some mechanical abilities as I have done minor work on my diesel truck but have replaced regular engines. I've done construction work also and some electronics work mostly computer related networking. I currently live in an 42' RV so understand the idea of limited resources when needed. Otherwise not a chef but can cook general things. I try and fish but it never seems to turn into catches. One caveat is that I am still employed and need to carve out 8 hours a day to telecommute somewhere during the ~7am to 7pm Central Time time frame. Willing to share in internet costs or will bring my own GoogleFi or something similar if needed. So consequently can do later watches overnight passages or the whole weekend. | |
