Available July 1st to July 14th 2024 for short passage.
Open to weekend getaways or longer passages if you need a hand getting your boat from A to B somewhere along the East Coast of Australia / NZ / New Caledonia.
Busy with work commitments, I would consider taking some time off for the right sailing trip / passage.
I love blue water and long crossings, I'll put my hand up for the very special middle of the night watch and would love you to teach me advanced boat skills as I am planning to buy a sailboat to live on some time in the next 5 years.

I love being on the ocean, I have not been sailing as much as I used to in the last 2-3 years and would like to continue to gain experience at sea and improve my navigation skills.
