Hi Y'all, My wife and I are interested in joining a crew for the ARC 2020. We are both sailing instructors and we regularly race a small 23footer around the cans on the Irish Sea. We have chartered in the Med a few times and we've lived on a 36footer with our three kids for three months in the Aegean. We both have delivery and night sail experience, and I have completed two Round-Ireland yacht races. We would both claim to be easy-going, and we would look forward to joining a team that may wish to do this rally in a safe, fun and reasonably competitive manner. We can both cook a few meals and will do whatever's needed on a boat. Looking forward to hearing from you! Fair winds, Henrik
