Hi All,
I learned to sail a few years back on a 32ft masthead sloop in the Keppels. I have not had the opportunity to gain further experience so I am hoping this platform will reach someone that can offer me further experience. I would love to be able to develop into someone that has the capability to sail to the pacific islands.
Kind regards,
Steve..

Hi, I’m looking to help and get experience sailing any sized craft you need help with! About myself – in 2018 I quit my job as a detective to take my kids travelling around the world. I’m in the Gold Coast now, working (well, studying really) from home and am therefore free almost anyday, or for a number of days at a time if you need help with a passage (governments permitting of course). One day I would like to sail the world with my family.
