2009 & 2010
We will be leaving the Bahamas June 1, 2009 to the Caribbean via DR, PR and Virgins. Eventually be in Bonaire.
Prout 39 catamaran, ports to join will be all along the way depending on schedule. Leaving Georgtown, Bahamas June 1, 2009 room for a couple or single. Normal crew duties to take part on watches, cooking, cleaning - swimming, snorkeling :rolleyes: and having a good time too. Island hopping, sightseeing and enjoying the adventure. Pay own expenses to and from, food, and any on-shore expenses for yourself.
Some experience appreciated.

Thanks for your ad Laura and good luck in finding your crew.

As an indication of costs, can you give a ball park figure for what the size of the crew's contribution to food will be and confirm that this, apart from joining, leaving and on-shore expenses, is all the crew will be required to pay?

Many thanks

Hi, Laura,
This sounds like what I am looking for. Take a look a see if we match up:

Open for any cruise in the Caribbean area; available starting June 1st, 2009. Any duration.
54 year old w/m, excellent shape, 6', 200 lbs. non-smoker, perfect health. Passport in hand & financially secure. Based in St. Augustine, FL.
RESUME': Past owner of 5 different sailboats (last 2 were a 48' cutter and a 40' trimaran), handful of trips to the Bahamas and the Georgetown Regatta. Delivery from St Maarten to Florida, delivery from FL to SC. Easy-going; looking for congenial, challenging sailing. Interested in improving my sailing skills under a competent captain.

Laura, if you're in FL I'd be happy to drive out and meet with you. Please email me at radioexpansion@gmail.com, or call 904-210-6848.

Thanks,
Rick
