Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi
The world is constantly changing !
I am now in Phuket, Thailand, but would like to continue my journey to the Mediterranean through the Red Sea when and if it is a bit safer.
Probably in a couple of years.
In the meantime I will be sailing around here and Malaysia.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

comfortableluxuriousvery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spaciousshare experienceseek adventurefulfill a dreamface challenges

The Boat is a 68 foot (20.5 m) custom steel ketch with a 16 foot (5 m) beam and 8 foot (2.4 m) draft.
She has 2 radars, 2 autopilots, several GPS plotters and Iridium satellite communication. She is easy to sail with double furlers that are controlled by one of 5 electric winches.
She has 4 cabins and 3 heads and is fully equipped with the latest high-tech gear (Double EPIRBs, AIS, SSB, Sonar, 6 man new Viking Life raft, etc etc). I believe in backup systems so she has double of everything, including water makers. She is a super comfortable CRUISING boat. No rush ! Safety and comfort is important and seeing as much as possible along the way.
The Star has over 1400 Watts of solar power to run the fridge and independent freezer, the autopilots and electric winches and a 8 kw diesel generator to back it up.
The plan now is to wait and see if the situation in the Red Sea changes.
Eventually I would like to take the boat to Europe and the Med.

What is expected of the crew

clean & tidyenthusiasticfit & healthyorganisedrespectfultrustworthyrarely/unlikely seasickgood listenertravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workdon't mind cleaningcan follow orderswill not bring a pet

I’m looking for new crew later, in a couple of years, to continue accross the Indian Ocean and up the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. Preferably between 25 and 65 years old. Fit and non smokers.
There are three cabins with separate heads, for independent privacy.
Alcohol consumption shall be kept to a minimum while at sea and no more than a beer or glass of wine. Once at anchor or secured at the dock we might have a celebration drink or two. No drugs of any kind please ! I am not captain “Bligh”, but I do demand cleanliness, both in your cabin and bathroom, as well as personal hygiene. NO smoking !
