Moon Shadow, Plymouth

Looking for crew for Cruising, Mile building, Ocean / long distance

When: Holidays (short-term), Long-term

from 27 May 2021

I’m looking for a female companion/crew to join me from this spring onwards, either short term or long term for a cruise around the UK.

The outline plan is to depart from Plymouth sometime in late May and head North through the Irish sea to north west Scotland. I will be over wintering in Stornoway and continuing in the spring of 2022 when I’ll visit Orkney and Shetland and possibly the Faroes, before turning south along the North sea coast.

You can join me at any convenient port of call but it is your responsibility to get yourself to the boat and to return home afterwards. This will be a “shared costs” deal but I don’t intend to lead an extravagant lifestyle so costs should be fairly small and I may be willing to consider contribution “in kind” – cooking for instance. Let me know what skills you have and we may be able to come to an arrangement.

I don’t mind about your nationality, colour, religion or any of that stuff as long as you have common sense, are reasonably physically fit, have a sense of humour and a willingness to get stuck in – these are more important to me than huge experience – of course, you should know your way around a boat and have at least a basic knowledge of what makes them go so RYA comp crew (or equivalent experience) would be useful.

If you contact me and expect a reply please tell me something about yourself and why you want to join me – one line emails will be ignored. Sorry to be blunt, but if you can’t make the effort to write a decent email I doubt you’ll put in the effort at sea!

I look forward to hearing from you.

Paul
