| Hi, I have a Day Skipper Ticket from the RYA. along with a Competent Crew and Power Boat level 2. Most of my sailing experience has been around Plymouth, Salcombe, Dartmouth area in the UK. Whilst living in Gandia, Spain, I took part in regattas with the Gandia yacht club. Due to Covid 19, I have just lost my job, so am looking for some adventure. I would like to end up in Portugal, as I have a property there, I am solvent, a good cook, and have a Can Do attitude. Please contact me if you think I would be a good fit for your voyage. Thanks, Elaine. | |
