I've been around boats all my life, though much of that has been as a commercial fisherman in Alaska. I bought a boat on the east coast a few years ago intending to circumnavigate. I'm going in stages because I'm not retired yet. I've gotten as far as Tahiti so far, and expect to head for Fiji and Australia in April. Meanwhile I'm at work back in the US.
I've travelled a bit, had lots of different "careers," and lived much of the time in off-the-grid wood heated cabins. I've got a good sense of humor, I love kids and dogs, am really easy to get along with, appreciate intelligent conversation.

I'm kind of quiet but sometimes I'm not.
I sailed small boats as a kid on Cape Cod. More recently, I've sailed around the east coast and a bit in the Carribean have now sailed from Maine down through the canal to the south Pacific. Also done some sailing around SE Alaska. I've also got tons of experience working on the water and captaining my own fishing boats.
I'm looking for one or two crew for a trip from Tahiti to Brisbane in April and May of 2024. I expect to stop in Bora Bora, Fiji, New Caledonia, and any other interesting place along the way. The boat is a 1988 Passport 40.
Attitude is much more important than experience. I want crew that i…
