Vilamoura

I am a passionate sailor looking for pure sailing experiences on different yachts. Love to be on the water a few days in a row, working within a crew of passionate sailors. I have the skills and experience as well as being a responsible and dependable person, for me to be a valuable contribution to the crew. As a bonus I can create a good atmosphere and bring a good doses of humour, (as I’m told). Although not making this into my career taking my sailing very serious.

Very nice trip. Starred off in sunny weather. Got genneaker out and had some fun! During night died down completely... Silky north sea. And in morning..... Clause haul with 25 to 30 knts true, having a blast.... So overall briljant trip. Big winds, small winds, no rain and little under engine

Delivery sea of biscay

Impressed by the size of the catamaran. Being electric engines... Response time very long engine so exciting to manoeuvre in small harbour. Weather conditions were rather easy. Max 20knt...but with full sail. And code zero... Flies. Very impressive. Mad for tourism. So no below deck or bunks. So but camping but made it even more q challenge. With 3 guys. Being first mate had great trip.
