| Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
| Experience: | 0 ocean miles / 0 coastal miles |
| I'm looking for a learning experience and an adventure I'll never forget. I have dreamed of seeing the world since I was a kid. I have no sailing experience unfortunately, but i want to learn and be a helpful member of the crew. I want to learn in dreams of one day hopefully own my own boat. I have always had a love for the ocean, and I want that love to grow more. I love nature and seeing the life in the oceans. I spent my childhood in the sea. I have done some training. I am from New Jersey in the USA. I have my New Jersey boater's license though that applies to personal watercrafts and not sure how much that pertains to sailing the world. My limited experience is to powered boats. I have some experience with carpentry, a little bit of electrical work nothing to serious but I have some mechanical understanding. I have a thirst for knowledge and drive to learn. I would be grateful for any experience. I appreciate anyone who might consider me, and I won't let you down and I will work hard. I would be more then grateful for the opportunity to live my dream. Thank you all. feel free to email me. | |
