Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hi there, I have recently finished my RYA competent crew and Sail Canada basic cruising. I am looking to gain more experience.
I was crewing on a C&C 32 for race nights at the local club. I did help a find a crew member from St Pierre back to cape Breton and then cruising the lakes.
Most recently ,I help a boat owner to move his boat from Halifax to Antigua. Stopping off in Bermuda.
I am familiar with Chart plotters, Radar and AIS systems. I have a mechanical background which has come in handy.
I enjoy traveling and meeting new people and am pretty easy going, hardworking, enjoys cooking and I always come with a positive attitude.

I am looking for paid or unpaid crew position in 2024
I'm open to any destination and have no problem paying my way to get to the boat. I enjoy off shore the most.
I've been around water and boats most of my life. I enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities including hiking, sea kayaking, snowboarding, gardening and camping.
I am handy and was a heavy equipment mechanic by trade. I like to help and problem solve. I was in the military, which gave the opportunity to travel Europe and sign up for adventure activities
I am also environmentally conscious and enjoy teaching people to grow there own food.I enjoy cooking and being part of a team.
