Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello, I’m Tiffany. I currently live on Staten Island and work part time at a restaurant in New York City. For the winter season I am interested in mostly shore based work or short trips (1-2 weeks max). I would be interested in farther locations and longer trips come spring and summer. Alaska is where I picked up sailing as a hobby with a few years ago to explore the islands and inlets of SE Alaska with my 24’ Yankee Dolphin. I have worked on a 44ft catamaran in 2020 and on a 66ft Gunboat from 2020–2021. I have experience baking sourdough bread and cooking vegan or non vegan meals as well as assisting with watch and sails. I have also completed my STCW as well as 100 Ton Coast Guard with sailing endorsement.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

In Sitka I was the director of a non profit working with seniors and individuals with disabilities in a center for independent living. I also cooked and waitresses at an incredible bistro during the summers. I grew up on boats and have a love of the ocean that has led to my interest in sailing and freediving.

For a year and a half (2018–2020) I cycled around the world with my partner at the time, starting in New Zealand and ending in South America. In mid January 2020 we began work on a 44ft catamaran intended to complete a circumnavigation starting in Panama. Due to Covid, we were forced to pause the trip in French Polynesia but continued work on a 66ft Gunboat to return to the U.S. via Hawaii. We helped navigate the Gunboat back to San Francisco, throughout Alaska, and down the Inside Passage of the Pacific Northwest back to California until the fall of 2021.

Since then, I have lived and worked in Mexico, Florida, and now NYC as a bartender, chef, art/film production assistant, and community care aid.

I have lived on boats and in tiny homes and am used to being tidy in small places. I love food, cooking, playing music, doing acrobatics, cycling, sharing stories, and learning about different cultures. I have a lot of background experiences which has enabled me to stay open minded and adaptive.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I enjoy living life as sustainable as possible and want to incorporate more sailing into traveling. It has been greatly pleasurable exploring the coasts of SE Alaska as well as the South Pacific. I would like to continue expanding my sailing experience and meeting new people. Crewing on boats can be a delightful way to expand my abilities while also connecting with likeminded travelers from different backgrounds.
