Crew roles: You should have at least 1 week of sea sailing experience on board a sailing yacht to join the trip. If you don’t have any experience, you can still participate if you join the first leg to sail around Cape Verde. If you are new to ocean sailing, this is a great opportunity for you to get into it and boost your sailing skills. If English is not your native language and you don’t know the English sailing terms, don’t worry. The vocabulary is pretty simple and you will learn it in no time while on board. You will become an active member of the crew. You are not just a passenger. During a voyage, you will assist with helming, sail trimming and all the normal duties of a crew member whilst having the opportunity to learn about weather, routing, navigation, boat handling and many more.
