| Hi, I'm currently working in London but looking to take some time out to get my yachtmaster. I did a transatlantic last summer and absolutely loved it. I started dinghy racing at 5 years old in an oppy, mirror, laser radial, firefly, and finished at 18 on an RS500. I've done my day skipper, and I have my VHF licence. I'm looking for some mile building to contribute towards my yachtmaster and my experience. I'm really good at team work and getting on with a group of people. I'm good at helping out with a range of different things and keeping a positive attitude and have fun. Please let me know if you would like some good company on any crossing, race, regatta etc. Look forward to meeting you. Arabella +447803 184 284 | |
