Crossing the Adriatic (Young Crew Wanted!)

Hey! We’re a Brazilian-Czech couple living full-time aboard Vera, our Bavaria Cruiser 37. We’re looking for a couple of easygoing, young and open-minded people (maximum a couple or two friends) to join us for a few days of sailing around Vis/Korcula and then bringing our boat from Vis to Puglia, in Italy. Think about a week onboard, more or less.

It’s a relaxed vibe onboard, we love exploring quiet anchorages, swimming, cooking together, and enjoying the simple life at sea. You don’t need sailing experience, just a good attitude and willingness to help out. Mostly we want someone to help us with the navigation watches, so everyone is well rested.

If you do have any hands-on experience with boats that’s a big plus!

We ask that you contribute for food, booze and fuel while you’re with us. Other than that, just come ready for a fun and real sailing experience.

Shoot us a message if you're keen!

  • Boat descriptionVera is a 12m sailboat from 2015. She's our home full time, so we make sure she's safe, comfortable, and fun for us to live in. We have water maker, hot water, freezer, heating, 3 cabins and everything we need for a pleasant life onboard. She sails very well and comfortably, and we also have a lot of fun equipment on board like SUP, snorkel, fishing gear, games, etc. We're very open-minded, so is Vera! We have a clothing-optional policy, cause we like to get a good tan and feel connected to nature.

What was originally supposed to be a few days of sailing around Croatian islands turned into 3 of the best weeks I’ve had! Gabi and Tereza are both very easygoing, kind, hospitable and truly a barrel of laughs. They both have a very calm and patient temperament and a lot of experience on the water so I always felt safe and I also learned a lot during my time onboard. I was particularly impressed by their ability to stay calm, communicating clearly and precisely whilst under pressure during a storm in which we saw 50 knots of wind! I feel I’ve made not only memories but true friends for life in these two and I do hope to get the opportunity to join them again one day !
