Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi future Crew member
I’m looking for crew to sail to areas in and around Tasmania., Australia . . The boat is ready to go as of March 2024 after a two year upgrade .
After 35 years of sailing together
my wife has hung up her sailing gloves and now has other interests . She is more than happy for me to continue sailing with crew and destinations of my choice .
I’m looking for a woman crew member because after racing , crewing and delivering yachts with mostly guys the best crews had women on board . I feel a woman will be a better balance on the boat in this short handed situation. It worked well when my wife and I sailed together . I’m 70 , married and not looking for romance .
Get in touch , experienced or not , It will be fun . It’s a beautiful area to cruise on a nice boat . I’m looking to go further in the near future with suitable crew.
Sincerely
Geoff
