Dear Shipmates

Introduction

French living in the US and looking for adventure.
Have done basic sailing certifications and looking to do more (much more) sailing.
Electrical engineer by training, I always welcome an opportunity to troubleshoot/repair stuff.
Besides sailing, on water I also enjoy kayaking/kitesurfing, and on land I'm into alpine climbing/mountain running.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

clean & tidycommitteddiligentdiscreeteasy-goingenthusiasticfit & healthyfriendlyorganisedrespectfultrustworthytravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workpolitebuy my own boat one day

Hi I’m Arthur!

I’ve had the chance to live and work in different countries and this has expanded my appetite to see the world. Family/friends around me describe me as easy going and patient.

I’ve worked operations/maintenance/consulting roles in industrial settings which I think has helped me build skills in planning, communication, project and risk/safety management.

I am now looking for a change of pace, and at the risk of sounding poetic - to experience the true and blue distances of this world :D

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experiencevisit remote placesseek adventureface challengescareer changegain experiencelearn to saillive off the gridtravel

Looking to acquire experience through multiple situations, live unique adventures, see the more remote places of this world (the northwest passage, spitzberg, Polynesia one day..) and build the confidence to eventually have my own boat one day.
Ideally looking for someone looking for a partner in adventure and/or wanting to transmit their love and knowledge of sailing, in return for positive energy and contribution in sharing duties. If we get along, ideally would like to sail over several weeks/months.
