Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi! I am an Australian looking for experience and mileage. Friendly, keen to learn and see some more of the world while I do it!

My plans are to be around Central/South America and the Caribbean until the end of 2024, Australia til March-ish then SE Asia and to Europe for summer 2025, but I have very few set plans so am open to joining boats where and when I can!

One thing I would LOVE to do, though, is sail across the Pacific towards the end of 2024!!

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I have been travelling on and off for around 15 years now, so am very considerate of the variety of cultures and personalities around the world! I love meeting new people and learning more.
I have played sports for most of my life, and like to keep reasonably fit.
I have 4 tattoos, including one on my inner elbow and one on the other forearm so if that is an issue for you then you may need to look elsewhere.
I do have a couple of food intolerances. However, I am more than happy to provide the extras I need in order to substitute when necessary!!

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamface challengescareer changeearn moneyfinding myselfgain experiencelearn to sailsustainable traveltravel

I am currently looking for experience and mileage. I have been lived in Australia, the UK and Croatia, but am now totally location independent, in Central and South America and the Caribbean til the end of 2024 and seeking opportunities to practice my skills and get back on the water!

I am seeking opportunities to work as crew, and am happy if these are periodic, short term or for a longer block. I would love the chance to be on the water longer term, as I am now working online exclusively from my laptop. I can take breaks from work for crossings, etc if needed (with a bit of notice). I am hoping to complete my Yachtmaster Coastal and move into commercial skippering in the next couple of years, boost my savings and keep up my time aboard.

I am looking to increase my skills and knowledge, am a hard worker with great motivation to move up in the sailing world!! Also, since I love to travel, I would love the chance to one day have my own boat and be able to use it to explore the world in a different way!
