Hi, for the last 3 years I have been living and sailing on my catamaran. I covered almost 25.000 Nm in Mediterranean, Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. At times I'm joint by friend's or family. The boat is in very good condition, well equipped (watermaker, generator, Starlink, dishwasher, washer machine...), safe and lot's of fun...

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

I'm going to spend a few years on a boat. I'm in the Trinidad for hurricane season. I will probably head north in early December. To visit the many beautiful islands, places... I'm looking for another crew member for this cruise. Experience, diligence, competence, non-conflict - these are welcome features.

What is expected of the crew

clean & tidyeasy-goingfriendlyorganisedrespectfulgood communicatorLGBTIQA+ respectfulpositive outlookopen mindedenjoy cookinggood with maintenance

I'm looking for someone to spend time on a boat. Ideally I'm hoping to practice my English. If you have some experience in sailing, have technical ability it will be great. Big bonus points for cooking :)
Maybe if you are already in the Caribbean Islands or can fly and have time - will you join me? There's always plenty to do on the boat. Daily activities such as cleaning, maintenance, etc. etc. they are simple All you need is the desire, you don't need to have a PhD in electronics or aerodynamics. Will we go and enjoy sailing together?
