The boats will be Lagoon 50's, 450's, 42's or 39's.

Crew roles: If you come on these trips you will be signed on as crew and your logbook will reflect this, the skipper can sign and stamp your logbook as such. We will be covering all aspects of planning, provisioning and carrying out the trip including safety and weather. Also we will be doing a practical introduction to celestial navigation. If you apply yourself during this trip you should be ready to move onto the YM Ocean ticket. Crew roles: All crew will be responsible for running the boat, cooking, cleaning and standing watch. I normally run leadership sailing courses and do professional skippers training so I am very good at leading crew who are not yet comfortable in their assigned roles. We will match your skills to your assigned tasks. Unless you are a YM (and even if you are) you will probably learn an incredible amount on this trip. Money: contribution from crew, 500€ for fuel paid at departure and 2-300€ for food and berthing costs paid when we make purchases. Travel to and from boat: crew pays
Money: expenses shared equally $7-900
