Dear Shipmates

Introduction

.

Join me in the Caribbean from late November in South East Caribbean.
Preferably long term but I’ll consider short term people too. This is not a paid position. If you want more details about the plan let me know. From there cruising the nearby islands (mainly south) until December. 2025 heading west towards Panama and the Pacific. But this is not set in stone.

Set in Stone!
Absolutely no smokers, I read generally a non-smoker as smoker who doesn’t want to say so.
I generally regard people who are looking for recreational and professional positions to be unreliable and usually looking for somewhere free to hang out while they find their next job.
Shared cost for food, fuel, meals ashore (only what you spent), etc.

This is a relaxed boat and the plan is relaxed. I’m open ended and I’m not into ticking off as many destinations as possible, if we find somewhere we like we’ll stay longer. Relaxed easy cruising, swimming, chilling out. Better suited to long term cruisers than bucket listers.
