We’re both competent Day Skipper sailers with 18 years experience. Mainly bareboat holidays in the Med and BVI’s with some Solent and Scottish sailing thrown in. We’d love to crew for a couple on their own yacht on a longer ocean passage to gain ocean experience and see where that takes us. Open to all ideas. | |
