New sailor on bird looking for ...

Hi,

I'm new on this forum and I don't know where to post a quick presentation about myself so I do it here.

I'm an almost still young French feller who is at the end of his second year (WHV) in Australia but unfortunately as every good things my fabulous relationship with this country runs to its end :-(. Anyway I'm ready to sail to new horizons especially New Caledonia that's why I'm posting this message.
I'm looking for a boat who can pick up me in Sydney - Brisbane or maybe Cairns to drop me off in New Caledonia. Obviously I want to participate and work on board.

I don't have any experience but I have some skills who could be appreciate.
I was firefighter volunteer in France for 10 years and also ambulance volunteer officer at St John Ambulance (WA) for a year (I can provide some evidences if you want to), I also have strong knowledge in health an safety (6 years). During my journey here I worked in construction, as dishwasher and kitchen hand so it can maybe help and I like photography.

I'm a serious and hard worker guy (I can give you some references).
I would really appreciate if somebody (or a crew) could send me a message and offer to me a ride.

A last thing, my English is good but I'm not fluent but it has never been an obstacle for my job.

I thank you by advance and see you on board Captain ;-)

P.S : sorry i saw my mistake in the tittle to late !

And in the UK sailor on bird could have a completely different meaning.

You can ask one of the forum moderators to change it for you if you like.

Scroll ALL the way down to the bottom of this page and you will see a menu about 3 cm from the bottom of the screen.

First option is "Contact Us". Send a message to the moderator with that option and they will be happy to help. Won't even charge you anything.

Thanks for this information but I assume this tittle, that's funny !
I never thought about sailing a bird ;-)

BTW if somebody has some good advice to find a boat or knows somebody please let me know I'll pay you a drink for that ;-)
Cheers.
