Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello,
I usually keep my sailing yacht moored in Karlskrona, in the beautiful Blekinge archipelago. As often as I can, I set out on shorter or longer trips in the nearby waters.
This summer, we are planning several longer sailing trips, and I am currently looking for crew members to join us:
• June 5-6: Karlskrona – Båstad
• June15-16 : Båstad – Karlskrona
• June 19-22: Karlskrona – Visby Stockholm
• June 27- 3 July, we are seeking crew members for the offshore race Gotland Runt
• About a week later: Stockholm – Karlskrona

If there is interest, I would be happy to stay a few weeks in Stockholm's wonderful archipelago after the GotlandRunt offshore race.

If any of these sailings sound interesting to you, don’t hesitate to get in touch!
