| Hi there, we are a family of 5, signed up for the ARC 2019 from Las Palmas to Saint Lucia, 46 yrs old wife, kids aged 15, 13 and 11, and myself, 49 yrd male, mixed passports, we speak English, Spanish and Italian fluently. The boat is a catamaran, a 2013 Leopard 48, fitted with generator, watermaker, aircon, icemaker, and I need to decide on a Parasailor or a Wingaker. Easygoing, we have lived on different continents, flexible as long as we do things in safely, for us and the kids obviously. We are looking for one more crew to join us, (a 64 yrs old Italian male, who has crossed the ocean a few times, will jojn us as well) not necessarily looking for specific abilities or experience, but good character, and able to keep it cool is most important. Non smoker please. Thanks, Luca | |
