    Thank Todd

    Howdy!

    My name is Bree, and while a novice, I'm very keen to learn more about all aspects of sailing. I am 29, fit, and ready to take on any chore or task, including night watches. Based on my personality and your crew needs, it's a perfect fit.

    I've just completed a passage from the Azores to Lisbon - and agree it's so wonderful you can stay forever! We dealt with very rough seas, a lightning storm, and potential orca attacks - all of which only made the journey more exciting. I don't get seasick, have no problem with fish guts, am a solid cook, and provide excellent music selections and lively discussion.

    If you still need crew for the Feb-Mar '24 portions I would love to cast my hat in, with potential to stay on. I am quitting my marketing job in January and will relocate to Europe by next year, so can't imagine a better way to make that journey.

    Please feel free to message me on this site, or I can provide email if it's easier. Hope to hear from you soon!

    Hello friend!

    I hope this message finds you well.

    My name is Shawn, and you recently "waved" maybe interested in regards to me potentially joining you as crew on your upcoming adventure. We are both free members with no way to communicate further on that site so I wanted to send you my contact info hoping that you may want to discuss the opportunity.

    You can message me on this site or by email at sbutler109013 [at gmail dot com] or by text/call at +1(831)709-7261. My findacrew profile is here - findacrew[dot net]/crew/345574

    The description you made of your plans is wonderfully written and excites the hippy-pirate-viking in me; your notes on what you're looking for in a crew describes me well. You seem like a great spirit of a man and a captain I would trust with my life - even if you don't need me on your trip, I would love to chat and maybe come help you provision or hang out before you set sail.

    Be well my friend!

    Regards,
    Shawn

    Hey Flying Monkey! If your boat still has a spot for one more crew member, I'd like to throw my name in the hat. My name's Max and I'm a 26-year old graduate student at MIT. I'm also a Divemaster and EFR certified, with a deep love for adventure and the ocean. I'm fit, level-headed, and always eager to learn new skills and take on new challenges. Moving to Europe, I can't think of a more thrilling way to start this new journey. I would love to discuss this further with you to see if this would be a good fit!
    Best regards, Max.

    Hey Flying Monkey!

    My name is Tanner and I am 27, fit. I recently bought an Islander 28 this spring and have plans of cruising Mexico this next fall. I do all my own maintenance on the boat. I just got back from a 5 day Catalina trip with my girlfriend(haven't asked her yet if she is interested in crewing across the Atlantic, though I'm sure she would be).

    I currently work as an engineer in the Aerospace industry in the San Diego area. I love working on projects and getting my hands dirty(especially fish guts... I love fishing) and can cook, poke and ceviche are my specialty. I notoriously pack light.

    I would love to join on this adventure to hopefully learn and hone skills needed to captain my own boat to far away places.

    I would like to join the crew in the Caribbean and end up in Europe.

    My phone number is (425)-802-1108 and my email is tannerpool@gmail

    G'day mate, would love to do the the first and second leg to get across the Atlantic, but if only able to do one leg would like to do Florida to the Azores. Think we have a 13.5 hour time difference but call me whenever it suits you.
    Thanks, Dave.
