Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hello!
My name is Heather, and I'd best describe myself as an enthusiastic novice sailor looking for a friendly crew who enjoys teaching others.
I've only ever had experience with dinghies (although limited) but I loved it and was recommended this site for sailing experience on larger boats.
I love adventure and travel, have recently travelled The Philippines where I got my advanced PADI qualification, also a keen surfer. I'm not afraid to get stuck in, happy to get involved with cleaning/cooking, and any other duties.
Thanks for reading!

My plans are open ended, I can travel to wherever is necessary for the right opportunity, and would prefer longer trips to give me enough time to learn.
My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I will be available around March/April time, around this time I plan to travel and ultimately end up in Central/South America. Looking for any sailing opportunities between the UK and the South American continent! Maybe even cross the Atlantic .. but we shall see.
