Hello interested crew. With my Hallberg-Rassy-53, which I have extensively equipped and set up to circumnavigate, I intend to continue my circumnavigation starting first half of 2020. I am now in the Caribbean and around May/June 2020 we plan to set sail from likely St Martin to the Med via the Azores, possible Lisbon, Spain and end up in South France around August 2020. We have space for up to 3 crew. I seek 2-3 crew that could be interested in the various trips and possible longer distance cruising starting in mid 2020, if I find suitable sailing experienced crew for such a trip. However, there is also a possibility that we will change crew from time to time along the way and also for shorter distances. Regards. Paul
