Solent to Netherlands: experienced crew wanted

Crew Wanted – Return Passage UK to the Netherlands

I’ll be sailing around the UK this summer and am looking for one or two experienced crew members to join for the final leg of the trip.

Embarkation: Lymington or Cowes, during the last days of Cowes Week (6–8 August).

Passage: Return voyage to the Netherlands, with the possibility of a few coastal stops depending on weather and conditions.

Crew should be comfortable standing night watches, have some offshore sailing experience, and be happy to share watchkeeping duties.

The boat is a well-equipped 36ft cruising yacht.

If interested, please send me a message with a brief summary of your sailing experience.

  • Boat descriptionA true classic sailing yacht with timeless lines, traditionally built in steel. This SEAL (zeehond), however, designed by E.G. van de Stadt for his eldest brother J.H. van de Stadt, offers a modern twist: a lightweight polyester (fiberglass) hull. This makes her noticeably lighter and far more responsive on the water, while still featuring the same trusted rigging—resulting in a remarkably agile and genuinely performance oriented sailing experience. Inside, she surprises with a beautifully crafted wooden interior and an impressive sense of space for a 36-foot yacht, including a spacious galley, making her warm, inviting, and perfect for extended cruising or comfortable living aboard.

I had captain Katja many times as a crewmember so she is more than experienced now. Fun company always in for a midnight swim. Great sailing area in a small but comfy boat. One advice: three bottles of red wine a day as fee is recommended to keep her happy ;-)
