Crew roles: Sailing experience is not vital; but we have to be confident that you can hold your own when needed. As we will be sharing a relatively small space for a fair amount of time the ability to live and share with other people is equal to or greater than vast sailing experience. Equal share of watch keeping and cooking, repairs is probably down to me as I know boat inside out. Navigation is mainly aim at sunset, we have sextant if it interests you; but mainly GPS. Steering is always fun ; but inevitably on long distance auto is left to get on with it. Cost of trip is an equal share of entry fee, food and drink.
Money: voyage cost
Travel to and from boat: crew pays
