Watch: Still sailing! - Sept 2020
Marine mechanic - Temporary / Seasonal - Thailand
Hello, sailors ! We're a small, owner-operated charter company with a couple of monohulls in Greece, and a 55' catamaran in Phuket.
We've just completed our Med summer, and thanks be to the Covid Gods, we had a busy-busy second half of the season! Now it's time to migrate to our second home in Phuket, and our 55' catamaran there.
So far, the entry restrictions for Phuket are still very off-putting to most short-term travellers, so our bookings for the coming high season are.....well, a big fat zero. So rather than letting our baby sit alone and sad, we're planning to do some sail/work trades with people who have complementary skill-sets. Eg, I've done tons of charter skippering over the years, but when technical things go wrong, it's always "the boys" who get to fix stuff. Time for this girlie skipper to learn! On another level - digital promo skills would be great to boost our marketing for when the world does open up again!
Open to creative ideas. If we don't have any charter biz, let's have fun and learn something new from each other in the meantime!

Work to Sail exchange
I stayed with Diane earlier this year for 3 weeks and had a great experience, the work to sail exchange exactly what i was looking for. Daine and Ray are down to earth, understanding, approachable people who offered support in all aspects of the work and the sail to all the different levels of skill and experience that i shared my stay with. The Aegean islands also offer some beautiful harbour towns, anchorages and historic attractions. I would highly recommend.
