Hi everyone! A few years ago I have lived on a sailing boat on Zanzibar and did a number of charter tours for tourists. After that I changed back to a "normal" life but continue going sailing as often as possible. In 2022 I skippered a yacht across the Indian Ocean and am now looking to join a crew doing the ARC 2024. I am available for November, December and beginning of January and can pay for all my traveling expenses and all other shared costs on board. From my past experiences I can confidently say I am experienced enough to be a very helpful crew member and do watched day and night. Also, I usually get along very well with everybody and enjoy getting to know new people on sailing trips. Also, I am not a terrible cook and make myself useful in the galley :) Interested? Looking forward to hearing from you! Johannes | |
