Good luck with it.

Thanks Ann!

I had been flipping through some of the pages and looking in on the "crew wanted" posts. I didn't know how to trim them down with the search but I'll do a little bit of trial and error and see if that will help me find a good fit!

There was someone a short while ago looking for young people to crew in Fiji.

Hi Matt! Did you and your wife ever link up for that sail? I am a novice that is looking to do the same thing with my wife and wondered if you were successful. Thanks, Len

We did not, Life did not permit us to get away for the amount of time we'd like too. Now we have a little 6mo old and it will likely be a bit more challenging.

This is still in our future plan and I'm still keen to test the waters prior to buying our own boat, but as to when that will happen, I have no idea.

Best of luck. We did speak with some nice folks both here and on Find a Crew so if you are serious about it and have the availability (flexibility is think is key to make something like this work) I'm sure you'll find something.

Congrats on your new baby! All the best to you and your family.
