| I hold a USCG 100 Ton Master Credential with a Sailing Endorsement. I recently finished sailing from Antigua to Darwin, Australia with the 2022-2023 Oyster World Rally. My wife and I sailed from Maine, USA to French Polynesia over five years via the eastern Caribbean, Panama and the Galapagos on our Shearwater 39, Centime. I have sailed over 55,000 miles, 45,000 of those being offshore, on our boat and friends' boats, but I am missing one leg of a circumnavigation. Looking for an opportunity between Cape Town and the Caribbean. | |
