Summer in NZ islands, Winter in Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu ...
Discovering the Southern Pacific ocean, I would like to share skills & experience with a full crew of 3 to 4 on board , buiiding up a coherent group of sailors on (relatively) easy crossings, island hopping & coastal wanderings. This before tackling the Eastward passage to Patagonia.
I like crew to participate actively to all aspects of sailing & life onbard.
We would be called upon to act as a group in the manner of racing teams, meaning each of us taking roles in turn of navigator to helmsman, to trimmer adjusting sails & all 3 acting as one to fly (? Relative to ability of sv Lucky Girl) over the water. Domestic chores taken care of with same enthusiasme às well as maintenance.
Boarding & departing from Noumea to New Zealand, coastal discovery of East to West coast, with extended time in the South island (trekking anyone ?). Then come April, back up North to ghe islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, NC ... Coral sea ? Tasmanian ? All crossings 7 to 10 days, shorter than islands discovery.
Divers, mechanics, electficians, musicians, lumberjac’s or just willing to learn with eyes wide open are welcome. We shall share !
We will also share expenses by feeding the petty cash piglet, 10 Euro (equivalents in other currency) per person, per day On Board. The money to be used for stores (food, drinks, cleaning ...). In addition we shall pay for bunkers, DO, on basis of 2.6 liters per hour run, with deduction of 2 hrs per day for thd captain alone. Corresponds to being impatient to reach destination by crew. Rest of bunkers (gas, ... shared when resupplying.
