Sailor Couple lSO Work Exchange
Despite the photos you see, we actually do smile a whole lot! We are a happily married couple living at sea. We are pretty open to discuss various arrangements and boats that might like to have us aboard. We both need to build miles and ideally, we would like a work exchange.
Julie is a registered nurse with a specialty in pediatrics and Jeff is a IT professional with varied hobbies, incredible problem solving skills, all things web and an eye for videography.
In Summer 2024, we plan to sell our own boats to join another that we find from Crewbay. Is it you!?
