[ Cancelled ] Etoile du Sud from San Carlos, Mexico to Seattle Mexico to United States ref 13404
From San Carlos, Mexico to Seattle, WA, United States.
April 2022 to July 2022.
I am planning to sail Etoile du Sud from San Carlos, Mexico, and Hilo, Hawaii. Departure from San Carlos before the end of April 2023, crossing to Hawaii in May, crossing to Seattle in June. Crew of any gender and experience level are welcome to apply either or both legs of the voyage. I am looking for one congenial person with at least some sailing experience. Big pluses would be ocean sailing experience, and skills such as cooking, diesel maintenance, and a general willingness to pitch in and do whatever is necessary. Regular watch schedules will be arranged depending on the total number of crew. Three is the most desirable crew level (me and two others) for watch-keeping. However, given the water carrying capacity of the vessel, just one crew member and myself is the most likely scenario. Please apply by sending me an email telling me why you want to join this voyage, and describe your experience and skills. A Skype call will be arranged prior to commitments by you or me. Crew are responsible for arranging transportation to/from the boat. I intend to depart Mexico from La Paz, so you could join me in San Carlos or La Paz - or somehere in Hawaii if you are only interested in the Hawaii to Seattle voyage. A profile of the boat is elsewhere on this website.
What roles/experience are needed (Crew 1): does not matter
Sailing with a Rally: None
I'm looking for (gender): either
Cabins/Sleeping : own cabin-own bunk
Smoking on board: non-smokers only
Total people on board: 2
Crew roles: People I can live with in a small space, easy going, willing to pitch in on whatever work needs to be done. Non-smokers. No drugs. Sailing and boat maintenance skills are desirable. Vegetarian and canned food as there will not be refrigeration. An experienced fisherman could add fish to the menu. The more sailing experience, especially ocean cruising, the better, but crew with limited experience and a desire to learn will be considered. This is a special opportunity to learn about junk rigged sailboats. For more information about junk rigged vessels, see the Junk Rig Association website. By shared expenses in the form, I mean pitching in on provisioning, thus ensuring there is food on board that you will eat!
Money: expenses shared equally
Travel to and from boat: crew pays
