Dear Shipmates
Introduction
I am 34 years old. I did not like my work and was unhappy with my life so me and my partner decided to sell our businesses and buy a boat and go sailing with our kids. We now live on our yacht with our two kids. One is 8 years old the other is 3 years old. I love scuba diving, free diving, making videos and taking photos.
We've been sailing for 3 years now and are making our way through the Solomon islands, png and indonesia. My wife is heading back to Canada for 3 weeks with my 8 year old and I am looking for crew to help me and my 3 year old sail the boat from Rabaul to Sorong.
We both love meeting new people and our guests and crew tend to not want to leave once they come on board. :)
