torsten griem wants 5 crew for pytheas, Shannon HPS 38, 12m.

From Golfito, Costa Rica to Honokohau, Hawaii, United States.

January 2018 to February 2018.

-Sail Costa Rica to Hawaii Crew tbd JC P23A, 4,700nm Clear and moor boat in Honokohau, lee side of Big Island Currently its just me, owner of the boat, looking for fun experienced volunteer crew to help me out on my bit of post-midlife silliness:-). Regarding expenses I am planning on paying all boat-specific expenses, fuel, moorage, boat permit, breakage, etc. Crew+I share provisioning expenses involving food and drink.

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 1): does not matter

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 4): does not matter

What roles/experience are needed (Crew 5): does not matter

Sailing with a Rally: Independent

I'm looking for (gender): either

Cabins/Sleeping : shared cabin-hot bunk

Smoking on board: non-smokers only

Total people on board: 6

Crew roles: Looking for easygoing trustworthy crew experienced in offshore sailing keeping watch, etc. I am thinking generally boat isn't big enough for specialized positions but specialty skills to learn from always very much appreciated, code zero sail mgmt, cooking at sea, etc. Total # is my max. Private pullman cabin portside has double. Starboard of that there is upper and lower bunk in common galley area. Forward there is a queen that all my experienced offshore sailing friends tell me will be inappropriate for offshore sailing. I have never had any trouble sleeping on my one experience really offshore (2015 Tenerife to St Maarten 14.4 days) or seasick so I think I will be fine with it but we will see. They are also telling me someone will want to sleep wedged into galley seat in pilothouse. Depending on how you count and sleep (shared or not) four could be sleeping with two on watch so I think max of six is good objective as I am into easier watch schedules:-).

Money: expenses shared equally

Travel to and from boat: crew pays
