| Hi, my name’s Will! I’m a 28 year old doctor from London who would be a great addition to any crew! I’m free from November 2019 to April 2020 but would be most keen on doing the Atlantic crossing in November. I’m a complete sailing novice but a very fast learner who would bring plenty of other skills to the table. Firstly I’m a doctor. I qualified from Cambridge in 2015 and work as an orthopaedic surgeon in London making me ideally suited to a physical trip where things can go wrong! Secondly I’m an Army Reserve Captain and keen adventurer having driven from the UK both to the Sahara and to Mongolia! I’m physically fit, have rowed a marathon and can competently navigate with a compass. Most importantly I'm never a grump and am the person that despite utter exhaustion you’ll still find pulling their weight and grinning! Finally I’m a keen chef! Whether it’s cooking its cooking a 3 course dinner on a bored Tuesday or cooking on a Trangia stove in the mountains I love it! I’d more than happily turn my hand to some boat grub! If I could be the sort of person you’re looking for then please get in touch ASAP! Will | |
