YACHTMASTER ready to assist you against free expenses

Dear sailing yacht 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 + 40k miles), capable of solving any unexpected issues due to my technical engineering backgound (naval architecture). I would like to continue exploring some remote sailing areas and can propose a free crewing assistance in exchange of my travelling and living expenses.

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 used to be a freelance Naval Architect now newly retired so I do have time to sail.
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 do not hesitate to contact me if you need some free assistance with your sailing projects.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Amicalement, Marc
