Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello sailing the world on a 450S Lagoon owners version catamaran. Fulling setup for world blue water crusing, with a full dive setup!
Meeting new people and exploring new places. We started in Singapore in August, 2016, Malaysia, Thailand, Maldives, Chagos, Seychelles, Madagascar, Mozambique, Mayotte, Tanzania, Kenya, around the horn of Africa, (Somalia) Gulf of Aden, Djibouti, Eritrea, Sudan, Egypt, Suez Canal, Cyprus, Turkey, Greece, then covid in Turkey. We escaped Turkey headed across the Med in 2020 out to the Atlantic to Antigua. Now in Dominica headed to SVG. A season or 2 in the Caribbean then off to the South Pacific or maybe the West Coast of Mexico first.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortablevery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spaciousvisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamlearn a languagelive off the gridmulticultural

Proud 34, (Thai) & Myself Mike 59, from (USA). We lost our 3rd crew dew to visa issues she had been on the boat with us since 2016. There is now a possibility that Proud will return to Thailand, (covid brings so many struggles,) Looking for someone that could step up an really learn to 2nd mate an help sail the boat. The Boat is a 2016 0wners Version 450S lagoon catamaran fulling set up as a blue water cruiser. Dive compressor, paddle board etc.

What is expected of the crew

A clean ship is a happy ship. So what's expected on board is to have fun enjoy the sea and amazing life on board a cruising yacht. But doing some house cleaning, stainless polishing, deck scrubbing and of course shopping and cooking are also task we all do on board. If you have no experience you will be expected to learn the basics of sailing. Help with mooring, night watches, learn to drive the boat and the dinghy.. This is not a vacation, nor a job, I believe crusing is a life of extremes. Some of the highest highs, an yes some very low lows. A great character shaper an the Adventure of a life time!
