Looking for: Worldwide opportunities
Experience: 3500 ocean miles / 2000 coastal miles
My daughter and I would like to crew for a month or so. My daughter (22) is finishing up college and we are looking to crew. She has a lot of experience, as do I. I'm a 52 male and run a plumbing company in Colorado with 25 employees. I've crewed off this site before and had a great experience. I have sailed from Antigua to Bermuda, across Lake Michigan, and have sailed in the Caribbean. I co-own a 40 foot hunter that is docked at Burnham harbor in Chicago. My most recent sail was from England to Portugal. I have captained different catamarans and monohulls between 36ft and 45ft. I am looking to crew all over the world. I am a quick learner and can take orders, but do want sailing to be a fun experience
