Coastal cruising, mile building, and competent crew opportunites wanted
Blessed to have had many different lives, I've lived in 4 different countries; working as a bike mechanic in Paris, Volunteering in Jerusalem; Graduating from University in and bicycling across America; Teaching organic farming on a beautiful island off of New Zealand, and much more.
I hold an American passport, but I've lived in France for the past 4 or 5 years. I am located in Brittany where I maintain and repair boats (non-commercial vessels), after completing a related 9 month professional training program. While working in family-owned boat yards on the French side of the English Channel, I've enjoyed getting out on the water on boats. My sailing experience includes sailboat racing, moving boats around the marina, and completing boat deliveries, among others. In the past, I've owned a sailing dinghy, which I used to learn on, attended weekly keelboat races at a local boating club, and completed a 2+ week cruise aboard a traditional wooden schooner as first mate.
Please reach out to me for local sailing opportunities around France/Europe, or eventually as competent crew on an Atlantic crossing.
See you soon!
