Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am a young Seafarer who is keen to sail new waters. Usually I bring a fishing rod and the catch of the day will end up in the galley.
Full of energy and always up for something fun I will try to make life onboard as enjoyable as possible. I quit my job back in 2018 to sail around the world. After 18 months I have finished my circumnavIigation.
I was hired to crew from Galapagos to French Polynesia this spring for two months, which has brought my experience to about 35k Miles.
Looking for a Paid Position during the Winter, mid October until mid January.
