[ closed ] Windward Islands northbound Martinique to United States ref 14568
Marc Tanner wants 3 crew for For Sail, Leopard 45, m.
From Fort-De-France, Martinique to Ft. Lauderdale, United States.
February 2024 to .
We are just crossing the South Atlantic Ocean from Cape Town to Barbados. My crew will leave mid January and I am planning to head north, visiting a number of islands. Planned start of opportunity is February from either Martinique or Guadeloupe. My wife will join during the voyage. The trip might end in Florida before I have to take some serious decisions. Therefore I am looking for 2-3 crew members (you can have your own cabin or share), keen to participate and learn, for the journey. I am a retired Swiss airline pilot. My boat is a 2023 Leopard 45, owner's version. As the plans are still a bit fuzzy they can be adapted to your wishes, I prefer crew with passports that don't need or have visa to most of the islands (namely the French/Dutch ones) to keep things simple. It is possible to hop on/hop off along the route. I just need ample lead time..
Marc is currently based in Cape Town, South Africa
