Sydney - Brisbane - New Caledonia

I'm a 28 year old surfer, kite surfer sailor with own boat.

I'm leaving Sydney 11th of May (Weather permitting), Leaving Brisbane early June to make passage to New Caledonia where crew will leave boat.

I'm looking for one or two crew to help me get the boat to New Caledonia. Crew must have proven offshore experience, be able to navigate, not get seasick, be able to purchase own ticket out of Noumea New Caledonia, pay for own food and meet in Sydney before leaving.

All boat costs including mooring and fuel on me.

Hi yep sure,
It's a 36 foot Roberts ketch, GRP, built in 1983, we've been re-fitting it for nearly 2 years.

There's some information on the spec of the boat, gear we will be carrying and refit at «

I've attached a photo also.

Hi,

I'm 19 and on a gap year. Currently in the UK but flying to Sydney on the 5th of May, arriving 6th.

I have over 3,000 miles experience both cruising and racing yachts and been sailing all my life. I have been a watch leader on a 72ft challenger and even been acting mate. I have strong navigational skills and comfortable on watch on my own. I have recently been working on superyachts and done at Atlantic crossing but have finished as from September I will be training to become an officer on cruise liners Also I have been a keen dinghy sailor competing in national and world events. Currently sailing a cherub.

Would be great to hear from you. my email is tom.hole@hotmail.co.uk
Hopefully you'll want to meet and if so we can get a beer in Sydney.

Many thanks
Tom Hole
