Hi. My name is Ian and I'm looking for crew to assist me in sailing from Naestved in Denmark to Canada via Iceland & Greenland.
I have RYA qualifications, safety at sea etc, and I'm working toward yacht-master.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

comfortablevery safevessel is survey certifiedusually single handed

The yacht is a large, easily sailed cruising sloop with a full length keel and two engines. For the most part the intent is to day-sail into the English Channel, via the Kiel Canal . After that there will be some night sails and watches to stand as we cross the Bay of Biscay.

What is expected of the crew

Although this is intended to be a relaxed and pleasurable cruise, there is a primary goal; To use the wind and tides to sail well and achieve a safe and timely passage to Portugal.
