Crew member looking for an East-West Atlantic crossing
⛵ Crew member looking for an East-West Atlantic crossing ⛵
? Available from September 21st!
? SPAIN / PORTUGAL ⇒ CANARY ISLANDS / CAPE VERDE / CARIBBEAN
I’m Lorenzo, I’m 28 years old and I’m planning to reach the Canary Islands by early October, then Cape Verde and the Caribbean. I’m planning to meet some friends in Brazil/Argentina next year and I want to gain more sailing experience, so I’m going to try to combine the two!
French/Basque, I speak French, English, Spanish fluently (and Basque…?).
??♀️ Passionate about mountain sports (highline, climbing, paragliding, canyoning, caving…) I have quite a lot of knowledge of knots and rope work! ?
?️ I’m handy. I completely converted the van I currently live and travel in! ? I have also already taken part in the antifouling of a boat and used my caving skills to replace an engine mount and install a Z-drive seal…
✍️ Engineer by training, if you have children in middle school/high school/preparatory classes, I can help with their studies!
⛵ In sailing, I have the basics but above all I’m eager to learn and practice more! This year I sailed on two boats in Greece last April and May: 100 nautical miles in 5 days from Preveza to Corfu, and 200 nautical miles in 10 days from Leonidio to Lesbos. Including a three-day, three-night passage close-hauled with watches…
? I really enjoy community life: whether it’s cooking, DIY, or playing board games ? (I do a lot of volunteering in communities and eco-villages).
I’m naturally cheerful, positive, motivated and proactive (in short, I’m easy to get along with!).
I can of course help before departure, whether with provisioning, organization or preparing the boat!
Are you interested in my profile?
Don’t hesitate to contact me! Looking forward to chatting!
