| Looking for: | Worldwide opportunities |
| Experience: | 5000 ocean miles / 10000 coastal miles |
| Have owned and sailed Griselda with my partner for 15 years - we arrived in the Caribbean at which point my partner chose not to do the crossing back when the time came. We have had great fun sailing the Caribbean and having had a crew for the St Maarten to Bermuda leg, they have chosen not to do the Bermuda to Azores leg due to the Azores high and length of time it could take to cross when the ARC departed. I’m now looking for two crew who would like to sail Griselda with me and enjoy the journey….. | |
