Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 240 coastal miles |
I'm looking for a crewing position on a sailing boat going across the Atlantic later this year or early next year. I have taken a year out before studying medicine at University and I am hoping to do some travelling in the Caribbean and Central America. This summer, I spent a week sailing off the West Coast of Scotland and I have recently gained my RYA Day Skipper practical qualification. For environmental reasons, I am trying not to take flights so sailing is an eco-friendly option. I am a hard-working and responsible individual, looking forward to the challenge which the crossing will present. | |
