Dear Shipmates

Introduction

My name is Blair and I am a qualified skipper, yachtsman, diver who loves to surf and share my experience. I am a passionate environmentalist and music lover. I have many years and miles under my belt as crew, first mate, skipper of varying yachts and ships.

Basically i am truly into the ocean.

Most recently (aside from this summer racing season) I have just returned from a six month stint as captain of a 100foot Schooner sailing around Indonesia. Incredible journey. I’ll tell more on chatting.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I have spent many years working on marine environmental programmes as well as humanitarian missions. I have been involved with for a few years delivering medical crews and sanitation to remote areas; as well as to work on reef management and sustainable fishing practices for the region.

I shall be in the northern hemisphere end of 2024 and am looking for work/pleasure. I would like to offer myself as a captain for anyone’s adventure or simply as crew if the passage is to my liking.
