Looking for a Delivery Crew, Mile building, Racing crew or Deckhand position
Hi - I've just joined Crewbay. I'm interested in finding a position as a Delivery Crew, Mile building, Racing crew or Deckhand. I'm looking forward to meeting some new people! My name is Riley Richmond I am 24 years old from Canada currently visiting home in Canada and then heading back to aus in October for my second year on the working holiday visa. I had my first off shore passage two years ago with a single hander. We sailed from Vanuatu to New Caledonia to New Zealand. I really enjoyed my time living and working on the boat over three months and got to learn so much about sailing. I worked in exchange for accommodation and was not paid, but I still really valued this experience. I shared cooking and cleaning duties both interior and exterior cleaning of the boat, made logs, and did my share of night watches. I then had a paid position as a crew member on Sydney Harbour Tall Ships for four months. It was my first time living onboard a historic brigantine ship. I learned many valuable sailing skills on a much bigger scale vessel such as setting large sails, curling sails, berthing skills, and team work; it takes many hands to run a tight ship. I then completed a diesel marines engine course up in Port Stephen’s. This also came in handy as a crew member to have a better understanding of what an engine needs to run properly trouble shooting, and maintenance work.I would love to gain more skills and experience in sailing and would love the chance to join some of you! Thank you so much for reading and I look forward to hearing from you! Fair winds, Riley
