Sailor looking for Mile Building or Competent Crew position
Hello.
I’m looking for sailing opportunities in the Caribbean in winter 2026.
I am Jean-Sébastien (J-S). I grew up in Québec, Canada and live in Toronto, Canada.
I have been sailing for 6 years on keelboats in sizes from 24 feet to 50 feet.
I completed Sail Canada Intermediate cruising and ICC.
I have been on five one week sailing trips, the last three as skipper.
I have sailed 15 days between Saint-Martin and the Azores in March, 2025.
I am member of a boat sharing club in Toronto, Canada, where I sail several times a week.
I strongly prefer vegetarian food.

Outstanding Crew with Expertise and Teamwork!
I had the pleasure of sailing with Ana and J-S aboard my Lillian V sailing boat (42-foot catamaran) as we made the journey from Belize to Honduras, including an overnight passage, covering a total of 200 nautical miles. Both Ana and J-S are incredibly hands-on and proactive, tackling any challenges that came our way. One of the highlights of our trip was when we ran into engine trouble; they jumped right in and helped with troubleshooting, displaying knowledge and problem-solving skills. Their ability to work efficiently and as a team was essential during that time. In addition to their strong seamanship skills, they are both incredibly hardworking and contributed to every aspect of the voyage, from navigation to sail handling and everything in between. They kept the boat organized and well-maintained, always ensuring everything was in its proper place, which contributed to a smooth and safe journey. They also prepared delicious vegetarian meals that were both nutritious and tasty, keeping the crew well-fed and energized for the long passage. I would highly recommend Ana and J-S to anyone looking for dependable, capable, and safety-oriented crew members. They bring energy, expertise, and a strong work ethic to the table, and I would happily sail with them again any day!
