Darrin Johnson, male, 58
Ref 51436
Nationality: | United States |
Currently based in: | La Rochelle, France |
Looking for: | Mediterranean & Black Sea; |
Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 500 coastal miles |
We are a couple who just purchased a new FP Aura 51. We will take possession in La Rochelle France in mid May. We are looking for a qualified captain who will provide at least 50 hours of instruction to get us ready to sail the boat on our own. We will also want an experienced captain to assist us from La Rochelle into the Med. So, I'd guess this is a 4 to 6 week project. Furthermore, we are signed up for the ARC+ which departs November 6th. Arrival Las Palmas no later than Oct. 31st. We need 3 crew with Blue water experience to accompany us on the ARC+ Let us know if you are interested. Kind regards, Darrin | |
