Experienced boatie looking for offshore sailing experience in or around New Zealand and/or South Pacific
I am a chartered accountant who is finally breaking away from the desk job. I have always had a passion for the ocean and spend most of my spare time in, around or on the water. I have plenty of inshore boating experience and I know I could definitely add value to any crew and not just there for the ride. I can help run a boat, navigate, passage plan, maintain engines and make a mean curry.
I would love to go offshore at some stage on my own boat but want to spend the next couple of years gaining some experience and seeing if I have what it takes. Then I will need to convince my wife it is a good idea!!.
I am looking at joining a boat that is heading to/from the South Pacific or New Zealand next year once travel/COVID restrictions allow. I would be flexible on timing and length of time.
