Competent Crew / Day Skipper — Caribbean & Bahamas, Dec 18 – Jan 4
SKIPPER / CREW AVAILABLE — Dec 18 – Jan 4
Hi, I'm Luke, 48 — a fun, easygoing sailor from the US looking to help skipper or crew on a private boat somewhere warm over the holidays, Dec 18 to Jan 4 (Caribbean, Bahamas, Panama, Costa Rica — really, anyplace warm that's good for island hopping).
RYA Day Skipper with ICC, ~875 miles logged (375 on RYA courses in Greece + ~500 on my own boat on Lake Michigan; Sheboygan Yacht Club — weekly buoy races and overnight long-distance races). I'm logging miles toward my RYA Yachtmaster, so longer passages and night watches are a plus.
By day I'm currently a Superintendent of schools. Before administration, I spent most of my professional life as a trades-based teacher — so I'm handy. Good mechanic and technical hand: diesel basics, 12V electrical, engines, systems, and fixing things underway. Happy on helm, nav, lines, anchoring, and general boat jobs.
Cooking: happy in the galley for simple, fresh, whole-food meals. If the recipe has more than five ingredients or a French name, I'm out of my depth.
I can fly to the boat, share expenses, and cover my own travel. US passport; video call and references welcome. One practical note: I have a pet allergy, so I can't crew on a boat with animals living aboard — please let me know if that's yours, no hard feelings.
