| Hello Captains skippers and crew mates, i’m a very fit healthy and active sailor looking for my next adventure, hopefully i’ll get to part in the ARC + again this year as i love blue water sailing. Sailed the Caribbean islands for 4 months after finishing the ARC I’ve gained 8.000nm in the last 18 months as Mate/Watch Leader for a boat delivery company based in the UK. This gave me lots of experience sailing different makes models and sizes. Currently working the season as a crew mate on a Sunreef 74ft in the mediterranean, my season finishes October where i will then be free for my next leg. I’m a believe and i am told i’m a valuable crew mate and have many references available. I have all relevant qualifications up to YM Coastal/Offshore and i’m hoping to take my YM Ocean later this year. if your looking for that crewmate with a can do attitude, ready to get stuck in, great sense of humour, low maintenance personality who can also cook wonderful your lady Really look forward to hearing from you. | |
