Adam Spiegel wants 1 crew for SV Saltair, Hallberg-Rassy 57, m.
From Annapolis, United States to Falmouth Harbor or Jolly Harbor, Antigua & Barbuda.
to March 2024.
We're looking for one more crew with offshore passage experience to join us for our mid-November passage from Annapolis to Antigua. The passage is roughly 1600nm and we expect it to take between 8 - 12 days, weather dependent. Arrival at the boat would be by the morning of the 14th with a planned departure from Annapolis of the 16th. We expect to arrive in Antigua by the end of November so your departure from Antigua would be on/around December 3rd, likely sooner if the weather cooperates. Saltair is a well-equipped 2023 Hallberg-Rassy 57 sailed by our family of three. Since taking delivery of the boat last year in Sweden we have sailed over 10,000 miles together.
What roles/experience are needed (Crew 1): Watch-leader
Sailing with a Rally: Independent
I'm looking for (gender): either
Cabins/Sleeping : shared cabin-own bunk
Smoking on board: smoking allowed
Total people on board: 5
Crew roles: We are looking for sailors who have offshore experience sailing at night and are comfortable standing solo night watches. We come from a yacht racing background and appreciate others who do as well. We all take turns with cooking and cleanup while on passage as well as pre-passage provisioning and setup and post-passage deep cleaning. Our son is schooled while underway so you should be comfortable sailing in a family environment. Other personal characteristics that we value include: -- Positive attitude, easy going and able to get along well with others over an extended passage at sea. A good sense of humor appreciated! -- High level of personal integrity -- owning and learning from mistakes -- Young (and/or young at heart!), active and physically fit -- Fishing and/or cooking skills appreciated! Non-smokers, flexible eaters please. If you believe yourself to be a good fit for us please ping us here and send us an email to svsaltaircrew at gmail explaining why and please include your sailing bio.
