(This advert updated November 2024 and currently a work in progress as I figure out what exactly I want to say, feel free to ask questions.....)
I am looking for a long term sailing partner, someone to share this amazing lifestyle with.
I plan to stay in Tunisia in a marina until March 2025. I have not started looking for future crew yet. Over the last 4 years I have had fairly short term crew with the 2 longest staying for 3 months each, all preplanned. I generally start looking for crew in January or February. That said, I have reached the point where I would like a long term sailing companion to sail, scuba dive and explore with so that is now my focus. Clearly I am now in uncharted waters :-)
I will stay in the Med for 2025 and then in 2026 work my way West and cross the Atlantic at the end of 2026.
I am looking for assistance with sailing, docking, cooking, keeping the boat clean and maintained and to provide companionship. It is nice to have someone to chat with and cooking for myself makes me lazy. Some sailing experience would be great but if you have not logged thousands or even hundreds of nautical miles don't worry. Sailing is not hard to pick up. I am definitely not a sailing instructor but I can show you enough to be very helpful with handling the boat. Previous crew have ranged from complete first timers all the way to folks with more experience than me. The boat is safe, clean, well maintained, and well equipped and I sail solo about half the time so there is time for you to learn stuff
Current plans.
2025 Central Med - Malta, Sicily, Sardinia, Elba, Sicily, Malta, Tunisia.
2026 Western Med - Heading West from Tunisia intending to TransAt December 2026 (via Morocco, The Gambia, Cape Verde)
