Dear Shipmates
Introduction
My boat is a classic Alberg 35 Yawl and I worked over the last few summers to get her ready for a trip to Newfoundland then the Caraïbes in the fall of 2024. I am a retired marine engineering instructor from the Canadian coast guard college, sail my boat with my Portuguese Water Dog and looking for a crew member that would allows us to sail long passages in a safer way. I will take care of all the boat related expenses, excluding your ashore expenses and your travel on and off the boat.
