Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello! I am skilled as a deckhand and first mate moving boats up and down the Atlantic, in the Gulf and in the Chesapeake Bay. I am looking for time on the water as I am working on my Captain's license. I am friendly, motivated and skilled and have all my own equipment/gear for easy to more challenging trips. I am able to share in watches and have a lot of experience on longer overnight journeys. I am competent with manual plotting/helming as well as with all modern electronics and apps. I am also happy to contribute to cooking, cleaning, scrubbing, fueling, topping off, etc!

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

Hi - I am experienced, tidy, and pleasant. I can totally do solo but if you want extra hands/help am happy to bring a friend with less sailing experience.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

face challengescareer changeearn moneygain experience

I do currently get paid to move boats as 1st mate and deckhand but I am very open for shorter trips at my own expense if nearby to get time on the water.
