Need a free qualified crew for your sailing expedition ?

Dear owners / expedition leaders !

I had the chance to sail for years in various oceans during my leasure time, especially in the Arctic area: Spitsberg, Greenland, Jan Mayen, Iceland and North Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Golf of Thailand, Caribbean, Baltic & North Seas, Mediterranea, Patagonian channels...

I am an experienced sailor (Yachtmaster Offshore), capable of solving many unexpected breakdown due to my technical engineering backgound. I would like to continue exploring some remote sailing areas and can propose a free crewing assistance in exchange of my food onboard.

l could be available to sail during this summer 2026 to go North or at fall to go in the Southern hemisphere. Some target areas still on my togolist : Falkland Islands, South Georgia, South Sandwish Islands, other opportunities in the Northern hemisphere could also be considered : North East coast of Greenland, West coast of canada to Alaska, Aleutian Islands...

I am a freelance Naval Architect who works part time, and sail in remote places the rest of the year. I'm an easy going person, very calm and appreciate nature contemplation, do not smoke and always prepared to help with maintenance or prepare nice food !

So please do not hesitate to contact me if you need some help with your sailing expedition.
Looking forward to hearing from your project!

Amicalement, Marc
