Aloha,
I’ve been a sailor all my life! We cary 2 sailing dinghies on deck. I’ve captained my yacht over 100,000nm, including 12 Pacific crossings plus crossing the Atlantic, Med and Adriatic seas. I’m looking forward to cruising to Fiji with a crew that is as enthusiastic about travel and fitness as I am. When on shore I like to go on challenging hikes, meet new people, enjoy delicious food and experience new cultures. Before the Fiji passage I would like to have the crew person fly to Oahu and go on a short, one to two week inter island cruise to determine compatibility. I am willing to pay for the airfare for this trip. I look forward to hearing from you!
