Hi:

I'm an experienced racer that's looking for a HMR ride.  I had a ride aboard J105 Stinger however they had to withdraw due to a structural repair that will not be completed in time to race. 

My sailing resume includes 10 HMR's, 21 Chicago - Mackinac races, 6 Port Huron - Mac races, Swiftsure Cup 2016 - 2nd in class Santa Cruz 52 Medusa, Transpac 2017 Santa Cruz 52 Medusa, California Cup Santa Cruz 52 turbo Kopopelli2 etc. 

Very skilled at all positions.  Please contact me so we can discuss further.

Yes, I have two very experienced crew members available.  Please call me at 469 785-4692 to discuss.  Thank you.

Hello:

I'm a fit, intermediate, and passionate sailor looking for an opportunity to crew on Saturday.  Currently sail on a C&C 35 in the Dallas area.

Please contact me if I can join your team on Saturday.  Thank you.

I know its a little early but I have 5 crew members that are looking for Harvest Moon rides.  They are all competent sailors and 4 of the 5 have sailed on a 2nd place boat in last year's regatta.  However, their boat that they crewed on last year isn't racing this year. 

The 5th crew member looking has done a lot of inland racing and makes very good crew as well. 

Please contact me if you have berths available for them for this race.  The 4 would preferably like to stick together but are willing to split up as well. They all can provide sailing references.  Thank you for your consideration.

Looking for a ride for a friend for this Saturday's Bay Cup I out of LYC.  He's been sailing for about a year and did the Harvest Moon last year.  He's about 6, 235, and works out regularly.  Can follow direction and doesn't get sea sick.  He'd make a good tailor / grinder. 

Please contact me if you have a spot for this sailor.  Thank you.

I just saw an advertisement for a 4-6 man life raft for $1,500.  The ad was either in Sailing World or Sail magazine.
