Solomans to Cairns
Crewed for Hew from Noro to Cairns in Oct 2024. Couldn't recommend Hew enough, very friendly and experienced. Learnt a lot from him! We had a few hiccups on the voyage (as you do with these) which Hew handled expertly. Zephorous is well equipped to take on any passage and is very comfortable. Hope to sail again with them!
