Panama --> French Polynesia

I am currently in Panama preparing for the canal crossing and getting stocked up for the Passage to French Polynesia. I will be here in Panama until mid-late April most likely and hope to start the crossing before May.

The basic plan being centered around spending time kiteboarding, snorkeling, free diving, hiking and just generally having a fun time.

I am looking for someone who is capable of standing watches (day and night), enjoys being outdoors and is level headed in stressful situations. Offshore experience preferred but not required if you have other relevant experience. My expectations are pretty basic, I expect crew to be responsible and to contribute positively to the journey. This includes but is not limited to standing watch (including night, shifts will be shorter at night for safety); sharing in the cooking duties, I really enjoy cooking and I hope you do too, and helping with basic chores around the boat (I don't expect you to take on projects as those are my responsibility.).
I also expect people to be able to pay their own way, meaning that you able to support yourself and be able contribute to the food and customs related expenses. Skill trade/ exchange is also encouraged since learning is a fun thing and benefits those involved in many ways. I do not expect crew to cover the ownership costs of the boat that is my responsibility as the owner.

Expenses onboard will be shared including food and fuel.

  • Boat descriptionJamesby is a Amel Maramu, she is ketch rigged with roller furling sails. She is fitted with a life raft, epirb, and basic safety gear. She handles well and has a relatively gentle motion in seaway. She is a comfortable and safe vessel with leeboards for all bunks and a deep center cockpit. She has two Jabsco heads, two cabins and a nice spacious saloon. The instruments are current (2023) Raymarine units and located at the helm station. I have added a solar arch with 750-watts of solar which does a nice job keeping the batteries charged up. This year (2021) a watermaker has been installed which will make life aboard even more comfortable and allows for self sufficiency at anchor. Lithium batteries were also installed in 2022 and make sure that there is more than n enough power available on board.
