Hello all,
I am keen to crew for the Twilight series and any other race or social sail. I have a little experience and have participated in the twilight racing up here pre 2015. I am free most day and excited to get on the water and be apart of a team. Don’t hesitate to send me a text or call 0468391000.
Looking to return to NZ via yacht in next couple of months. Some ocean sailing experience – Tahiti to Rarotonga.. international radio operators license. +64221829468.
Hi,
Compared to everyone else on here, I have very little experience. I sailed dinghies as a kid and my partner and I have recently purchased a 36foot monohull. I’d love to be a casual crew member on a boat to get a bit more experience. I’m very good at being told what to do and am pretty fit and confident on the water.
I’m hoping to do a few courses etc before we set sail. But, am just dead keen to get out on the water.
Hi all,
I recently moved to Gold Coast and am hoping to get into sailing here. I lived in Sydney seven years ago and did a year of competitive onshore and offshore races on a Beneteau 32 footer.
I am hoping to get back into sailing and can commit and attend regularly.
Thank you,
Boris

Hi Skippers,
I’d like to join a crew racing in the Flat Rock race starting on Sat 24Jul.
I’m on the Gold Coast for a while – I normally race out of the CYCA in Sydney on a Sydney 38. {I entered Qld before the recent Covid-19 issues arose}.
I have been cruising and racing all my 55 years; I’m fit and can sail in any position on the boat – from helm to headsail 🙂 I have raced at local, state, national and international levels.
If you’re looking for crew for the Flat Rock race please contact me 🙂
Kind regards,

Hello Sailors
I have recently purchased and partly refurbished a Shaw 650 Sportsboat (4 Shaw) and need crew for SYC Hollywell races on Wednesday and Saturdays as well as Sportsboat regattas like Airlie beach. Looking for both casual experienced crew and willing to train less experienced who are committed to a regular sailing program. Contact Stephen 0403824281 or s@atxnz.com
Please call me 0422853633 cùrrently in Redland City marina awaiting upgrades to 40 foot sloop ocean going cheers paul ☺
‘No Secrets’ is a race optimised 34′ Dehler Optima keelboat with a competitive race record. I am looking for experienced or semi-experienced sailors to join our crew pool for Offshore and Twilight racing this coming season. Because we have a couple of crew in training at present I can’t take EOI’s from people without sailing experience. What I need are sailors who can come onboard, demonstrate reasonable skills and immediately add value.. Sailing must be your number one priority, It won’t work for me if sailing is one of five other activities (apart from work of course) you have on your agenda. Regular availability is essential as is the ability to communicate. I’m also looking for sailors who understand what commitment means and sailors who can demonstrate that they want to be part of a team intending to succeed at a reasonably high level. If you think this is you, call Tony on 0411 429 527.
Hi there looking to gain some experience and meet new people. we have moved from Rockhampton to tweed. I am an active person and would like to crew on a sailing boat. I would like to purchase a sailing boat in the next year or so. Available most days, very flexible with times. I don’t have much experience.
Easygoing, competent yacht crew available on weekends. Lots of race, regatta and delivery experience both inshore and offshore over 20 years (~45,000nm). Have current Sea Safety & Radio certs & can easily renew First Aid if needed. Previously Sydney, now Brisbane based.
Morning Jane, if you are still available could you give me a call on 0411 429 527. Cheers, Tony Shaw

Hi family!
I’m Jae. I’m a 28y.o woman from the Northern Rivers.
I’m looking to crew on a boat heading up to far North Queensland.
I’ve just started sailing so will need someone whose capable and comfortable to teach me the ropes (or the Halliards 😉) to sail with. I’d like to leave as early as this month (March) and can be super flexible with schedule, and the time it takes us to get up there.
I’m not sure why I’m being called to go there, but I feel it in my bones.
I’d like to be there by Winter.
I’m looking for a fun, young (or young at heart) and energetic crew to sail with. I’m eager to learn and super fun to be around.
Really forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind regards,
Jae
