Dear Shipmates
Introduction
I qualified as an RYA Dayskipper in 2013 and am actively seeking opportunities to get in more sailing experience, preferably on short trips (2 - 7 days). In particular I'm interested in gaining more experience along the south coast of England, e.g, the Solent. I'm available to lend you a hand as skipper or competent crew, whichever suits you better. I'm very flexible and will gladly travel to most destinations in Europe. I'm very hard working but also very sociable. I can fit in with any group - young/ old, male/ female, thrill seekers/ chillers, smokers/ non-smokers, etc.
