Got one, others fell out. Looking to leave tomorrow, but one more would be great! What’s your availability?

Are you looking for pros or free crew?

[Sandy2886]

Look for both. Depends on the situation, I will consider free.

[Sandy2886]

I am interested to know more about your trip and vessel.

Good morning my cell phone number is 954-226-2890.
Are you willing to share expenses for airfare?

I’m hemorrhaging money at this time - sold everything to live on the boat and my wife doesn’t like weather or choppy seas; so, I’m solo on everything, to include planning. I prefer free crew,but, I’ll pay if that gets me to Norfolk.

Thanks everyone!

Posted an update and it didn’t take.

I only found one experienced crew, that could the trip on short notice. Due to insurance, I have little time to get the boat up to Norfolk.

We departed Saturday afternoon and struck the edge of the Dania channel (not indicated on my Navionics or my depth gage until we hit.

Hauled yesterday at Yacht Management Group - rudder bent and damaged, prop damaged.

YMGRP says they can straighten and repair the rudder; but, we won’t know definitively until today/tomorrow.

I’m back in the same situation, as last week. “If” they can straighten the rudder, the other repairs are minor and I’d be looking to leave July 21st or shortly after!

Thanks everyone!
