Crew Available: 17-year-old moderately experienced sailor

[mewhenisail]

Hi there!

I am happy to join your crew if you are still looking for one during June 2024.

I am a 17-year-old moderately experienced high school sailor. I have participated in a handful of unorganized regattas and have experience in setting/using spinnakers and trapezes on C420 class boats, as well as cruising on Catalinas (17.4 and one 20-something footer). Based in the California Bay Area, but I am happy to travel to get to any dock. Looking to gain more experience on rougher conditions (oceans/Mediterranean Sea) and larger boats.

As for personality, I am a pretty decent cook, good in high stress situations, and most definitely a "cheerleader" as you described. I personally believe I am mature for my age, so immaturity should not be a problem here.

Contact me on my email or my phone number (whatsapp) if you want to take me on: anshambatkar@gmail.com or +14086790580

I don't believe I can charge anything so I am completely free to take on. However I do expect that there be some expenses taken care of.

Also due to safety concerns, I do request we meet either via Zoom or in person a few weeks or so before the voyage so I can ensure that I am getting a fair position. Also I may need to bring my father on the trip with me, and although he can serve as a cook, know that this may be a limitation.

I hope you consider me, and have a great day! You all sound so awesome.

Well, you sound pretty well squared away for a youngun. We aren't needing crew and we're a long way away, but I hope you find a berth somewhere.
