Offshore Passage Opportunities

Volunteer Crew Registry - 2010

This is an opportunity for experienced offshore sailors to join a boat for an ocean passage. It is not a school and crew members are expected to have the experience to stand watches alone. This includes reefing and heaving to. Night sailing experience is required.
