Looking to Crew a Passage in '14

Hi there,

I'm planning a circumnavigation, but before I take off on that I want to gain some experience crewing another boat, early/mid '14. Thus this post.

About me: caucasian, male, 29, recovering professional in the software industry (see: not as athletic as I used to be). Strongly prefer the ocean to the office, have spend multiple days in sailboats without seeing land (but much, much more time on powerboats).

I'm a freediver, spearfisherman, avid traveler, ceviche fanatic, and enjoy the occasional glass of red wine. I prefer to not see land for extended periods, and thoroughly enjoy (almost?) everything on the water. Read/write as much as possible.

Easy going, have more than a couple of stories and have traveled extensively. Born in Dubai, lived in Europe, dove off of the coast of almost every Central American country. Prefer dives to resorts and local culture to expensive trips.

Don't mind splitting food/bev/entertainment expenses as long as they're moderate. Can have a very flexible schedule starting early/mid 2014, let me know what you have in mind.

Because I want to buy a catamaran for my own circumnavigation (after crewing), I'd prefer to crew on a cat. That said, I'm not going to turn down anything that sounds fun on a mono. Cheers!

-Nate

Hello Nate,

I'm looking to cross the Atlantic in May. Sailing from BVI to Lisbon. Would you be interested?

Thanks.
Matt

Matt - I would definitely like to hear more about it, thanks for the reply!

Probably the best way to start the conversation - (my first name) at (thenomadtrip) dot (com)

Cheers,

-Nate
