Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Kia Ora
Airline pilot in my former life , so very relaxed, and prepared to let a crew member learn and gain confidence handling small capable yacht. Share duties and responsibilities. Become an equal, in a shared partnership. All normal boat cost's are my problem.
About the boat, the plans, and current crew
usually cleancomfortablevery safevessel is survey certifiedusually single handedlive on little moneyhave a holidaylearn a languagelive off the gridmulticultural
Out of NZ during covid lockdowns. Sailed eastward against the wind to Tahiti, Panama, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, direct Ireland (43 days) around UK 6 mths, Canaries, Carribean , Panama. Sailed west across Pacific, Darwin, and Indian ocean, Capetown, and west across Pacific again. now in Bundaberg, Australia.55000nm in 3 years. Must have a few clues what I am doing.
Sailing north to Phuket (ready in June)) for new sails. Then westbound either to go via Suez, or maybe south again around Capetown. Or maybe go east via Borneo, Japan and circle back into Pacific. Back to NZ 2026.interested anybody?
