I am looking to crew for the Harvest Moon. I haven't been sailing long, only since January 2010. I am ASA certified and sail 2 to 3 times a week on Lake Grapevine, Texas. I am a good listener, great learner, and eager to help. I would prefer an all women crew but will take what I can get. I can provide my own transportation back to DFW.

General Discussion / New to sailing, looking to sail
May 13, 2010, 09:42:22 AM
My husband and I are new to sailing. We both completed ASA 101 in March through South Coast Sailing in Kemah. We really love the area and are looking forward to sailing more and eventually buying our own boat. We currently live in the Keller/Fort Worth area and we do a lot of sail boat races with our club that is located on Lake Grapevine. Our experience is limited to the boat we learned on, Colgate 26 and the boat we have crewed on at Lake Grapevine, Catalina 30. We are planning to move to the Clear Lake area within the next year..once we sale the house and find employment. 
On Friday May 21 we will be returning to Kemah to continue our education with South Coast Sailing, but we will have some down time and would like to get out in the bay. We don't have the skills to charter a boat ourselves and we looked into getting on the Capt Kidd, since our 2 children will be with us, but its just not what we are looking for. For instance, on the Capt Kidd, we would end up paying about $100.00 for a 2 hour cruise packed tight with as many other people that could fit on the boat. Then we would sit there and enjoy the ride. We don't want to just sit and enjoy the ride. We are interested in learning more skills and crewing the boat. If you would be interested in taking us out on Friday evening or Saturday afternoon (May 21 or 22), please contact me. We are a young family with 2 kids, ages 7 and 5 looking for a sail with some nice people that we can learn from and hopefully be friends with. If you have kids, thats even better
I understand that there are rules and regulations about taking payment if you aren't a captain, however we don't expect to ride for free.
