Sigma 362
Fast, comfortable and strong cruising yacht with a racing pedigree
Spain, Gran Canaria
is looking for crew for Cruising, Mile building, Ocean / long distance
when: Holidays (short-term), Long-term
from 9 Apr 2022
I'm looking for a female companion/crew to join me from June '22 onwards, either short term or long term. I am leaving from Plymouth bound for the Caribbean via Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Canary Islands and the Cape Verde Islands. 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 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, the colour of your skin, your 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

Dufour 39 GF Design
sloop rigged cruiser racer.
Portugal, Algarve
is looking for crew for Cruising, Ocean / long distance
when: Long-term
10 May - 20 October
WANTED sailing buddy/crew or buddies. Do you fancy an adventure as opposed to day sails and short trips? Crewing for me maybe what you are looking for if you like fair weather sailing in a warmer climate, as my yacht is based in Portugal and I cruise from the Algarve to the Balearics and back most summers. For most of the last 8 years I have been completing this trip single handed 95% of the time, but I am now looking for crew to assist me particularly on the outward and return cruises. My yacht is a 12 metre Dufour 39 GF Design cruiser/racer that I have converted to a well maintained and fully equipped Mediterranean live aboard, it has an Axiom chart plotter, WiFi - AIS which links to chart plotter and I Pads, EPIRB, Liferaft, heating, fridge, heavy duty Anchor and electric winch, Rib, davits, solar panels etc etc. Layout is 2 cabins with 2 heads both with hot/cold water and showers, with up to 7 berths but would only ever have a maximum of 3 to 4 on board. Planned itinerary for 2023 is leave Algarve in May for a 2/3 weeks cruise to the Balearics, cruise around the Balearics until Mid August, then a 2/3 week cruise back to Portugal, I then cruise around the Algarve until lift out onto the hard in October. I am a retired mechanical engineer and have Portuguese residency so I am not limited by the 90 days in any 180 Schengen rules, which will apply to UK residents. My yacht is based near Faro in Portugal and is a 15 euro taxi ride from the airport, flights to Faro from most UK airports are readily available and can be as cheap as £25 or less, you can normally also fly quite cheaply from Palma back to the UK. What I need in a buddy/crew is someone who is able to come for a flexible period of time, and not be limited to set start and finish dates as my plans are always totally flexible and dependent on fair weather, routing, etc. Ideally you will be qualified and experienced enough to stand a night watch if required, and know when to call the skipper, generally understand sailing rules/lights/navigation/weather/AIS and how to sail and operate an autopilot competently. You need to be relatively fit with no severe medical conditions, limitations, and able to look after yourself, and other members of the crew and the boat if it gets a bit rough. Ideally we would meet up beforehand to ensure that we are compatible and can get along with each other, I think I am fairly easy to get on with, a non smoker, drink wine and like cooking standard food. Before acquiring my own yacht I qualified to coastal yacht master and crewed on numerous yachts including a two man round UK trip, and a Biscay crossing, with various skippers many of whom are still good friends and could provide references if needed. We would share expenses for, Food, Drink,Marina fees, Diesel,Gas etc. although wherever possible I prefer to anchor to save marina fees which can be very expensive in the Balearics.(on my previous trips I have never stayed in a marina in the Balearics) I am currently at home in South Yorkshire until March. If you are interested in this sort of trip please PM me.

Feeling 960
cruising yacht
Greece, Preveza Ionian
is looking for crew for Cruising
when: Holidays (short-term)
1 April - 30 November
My boat is a 33 foot Feeling with good accommodation all the usual kit including hot showers, fridge etc separate own cabin for crew. I'm looking for a sailing companion to sail the Ionian Greek waters, initially for several weeks during next summer and for at least two trips, next year for six or seven weeks again two trips and possibly more, qualifications are not required or experience, a love of Greece is and so is a pleasant personality and a willingness to get involved in all aspects of being on the boat.. a contribution to food and fuel is required though fuel would be quite low as I prefer to have the sails up, there are unlikely to be any marina charges all but a few town quay's at cheap tariff, again anchoring is preferred. Of course you will need to fund your own flights insurance etc these can be quite cheap if the schedule is right. Its important that we have similar outlooks at life, in my case retired, (nearly) easy going and prefer a quite relaxed approach to exploring the wonderful islands of Greece and also not so dissimilar ages. There are some lovely towns to visit, fab tavernas and bars, great for a cooling drink after a day in the hot sun if that's your wish, its your holiday too, your input as to where we might sail as is valid as is mine. My boat is not new, in fact she was built in 1986 but she is well maintained very comfortable and sails very well. If your interested say so and we can have a chat..

Tartan 37, masthead sloop

Crew for daysailing to short trips of a few days. Attitude is important, experience is not.
Updated : 14 Nov 2022

Lagoon 42 has a nice classic shape of the side line. Being a catamaran gives it a double stability and even more usable space, which proves very useful when you’re on a holiday cruise. Convenient, spacious cabins with bathrooms and air conditioning make the luxurious vacation even more comfortable. Another factor adding up to the comfort the vessel offers is lots of space on the deck

United Kingdom, Mylor, Falmouth
is looking for crew for Cruising, Mile building, Ocean / long distance
when: Weekday, Weekend, Long-term
10 July 2022 - 31 December 2023
I have a Cabin Cruiser based in the South West in Falmouth. I would love to share this boat with people M/F, couples, who want to enjoy cruising, mile building or just day sails. The boat is reasonably well controlled from the helm, so as long as you have an interest and a degree of knowledge of sailing, then I am sure its just important we have fun, and enjoy the experience and each others company. Food will be shared cost, and a willing contribution at the bar. My personal goal is to enjoy the next year, get acquainted with Suenos, and then undertake the ARC Transatlantic in November 2023. So if you want to just enjoy the South West or become getting involved with a crew crossing the pond, then get in touch. Look forward to hearing from you. Cheers David

Someone who wants to come out for day sails / overnights that can be decided as we go. Ideally someone who has done the day skipper or knows a bit about sailing as I'm on the learning curve myself. I basically want someone to help and have a laugh as I'm not confident enough yet to go single handed and its supposed to be fun at the end of the day.
