Based in Wellington New Zealand - local and regional sailing
I am looking for an opportunity to crew, to participate in and enjoy the sailing. I know how the basics of sailing - raise, lower sails, trim sails, steer a course, row and operate tenders. I am happy to participate in all daily sailing and care of the boat tasks. I can prepare food/meals.
I am keen to continue to develop and learn new skills.
I have never been sea-sick, even during the roughest Cook Strait crossing (but maybe there is always a first time)
I can do maintenance and repair things - I have strong technical aptitude and have a background in automotive mechanics and possess excellent practical and fault finding skills.
I am an open minded individual willing to accept all points of view given honestly, with integrity and respect for others. While being stable and level headed I enjoy a bit of banter and humour.
I am physically able and have no problem getting on and off and around a boat or into the tender. I swim and snorkel but hey, I am 64
I am a non smoker and light drinker. I have tidy and hygienic habits.
