Two sailors seeking to positions to race for the Rum. We don't really drink though....just wanting to have fun on the water. We have wife/GF if you need more weight lol.

Experienced.

I've been crewing on the same sailboat for a long time, and that person has now retired. I'd like to find another boat that needs experienced crew. Casual sailing on weekends here or there, and/or racing if you're into that as well.

I have lots of sailing/boating experience. Someone with a laid back, or casual attitude would be good. Let me know if I can help. I might have a few other friends off the same boat if you're interested.

Cheers...

I'm taking out a 46 ft sailboat out of Boardwalk Marina this afternoon, and could use some help on the sails. You don't have to be super experience. Some experience would be helpful LOL.

We leave the dock about 1pm and will be out about 4 hours, give or take. Please call me if you'd like to go. Beer will be provided.

Great explanation for the reason to take some sailing lessons. Nice and concise. I keep telling my wife she needs to take lessons even though she has experience sailing on big boats. Thanks...

I couldn't find it because I was looking on the forum instead of the webpage. I've been coming to this forum so long as a saved favorite location that I forgot there is also a webpage that I never log into?lol.

Thank you for taking a moment to help on this beautiful day. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours?CHEERS!

i was going to sign up as a Senior Member but could see no option for where to do that? Please advise?and thanks.

It looks like people on the deck without a sailing harness. Maybe they had rushed out hearing breaking waves?

The monohull yacht (2014 Bavaria 56 ft) has been reserved, fees paid, for June 13th thru June 27, 2015 picking up in Athens Greece. With one of the couples, the guy is a dive instructor and the plan is to ship our dive gear over (and back) via DHL. The stuff will be delivered to the yacht the day we get there, and then picked up the day we leave.

I (three couples on the boat) would like to find one more person that is an experienced sailor. You don't need to be at the level where you have sailing certifications as we have that covered, just someone comfortable with general operations on a sailboat. Two of the couples on the boat are experienced sailors, one is not.

We are looking for a single person, interested in going, and we'll provide a cabin for that person. We would want you to do the whole 15 days. This is not a working position and you'd have no more responsibilities than anyone else on the yacht. You'd be equally sharing in whatever we all do. You'd just need to pay your airfare in and out, and your expenses while in country.


Please let me know if you're interested. Cheers?.

I contacted the organization and this was their reply:

Hi Thomas,

There will be an announcement soon about a major US network becoming the lead broadcaster.

The announcement will be in a couple of weeks.

I?m sorry that I can not share more information at this time, but rest assured the weekly programme will be available everywhere in the US

Very best
Andrew
