Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Greetings! I am looking for an energetic, motivated chef/cook/stewardess for my 44 ft St. Francis sailing catamaran. After sailing around the world, 12 years ago I started a charter business, running all-inclusive trips through the Exuma Cays, Bahamas.
Most trips are one week long with 2-5 guests aboard. Your duties will include cooking three meals per day being creative and healthy depending on guests' preferences. Also general cleaning and preparing cabins for charter. All your expenses are covered. When not on charter you have time to enjoy the beautiful Bahamas and its surreal waters and beaches. Surfing, kite surfing, free diving, volleyball and yoga take up my time when I'm not busy with guests or boat maintenance. I have a good amount of experience from growing up aboard a sailboat and sailing around the world. I love being active and enjoy water sports and a healthy lifestyle.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

The boat has four cabins and four heads. You will have your own cabin. She is a performance cruising cat built in South Africa and I live aboard based in George Town, Exuma. I am American, born in Florida but was raised aboard a few different boats with my family while being home schooled.
