Crew member seeking return crossing from the Caribbean or Colombia to Europe, summer 2027

Description

A 20-year-old native of Finistère, currently an exchange university student in Cali, Colombia, who must return to France in June 2027. For ecological reasons, she prefers to avoid flying and dreams of returning by sailboat, crossing the Atlantic at a human pace. She is looking for a return passage from the Caribbean Sea, Central America or South America (ideally Colombia) to Europe, between 1 June and 31 July 2027. She is flexible on dates, provided the departure takes place after 1 June. If the departure is not from Colombia, she can try to reach the Caribbean islands on another boat. On board, she can take part in watches both day and night, in the boat's kitty and in boat maintenance. She enjoys cooking, playing cards, chatting and admiring sunsets. She holds a coastal skipper licence and a level 1 diving certificate, speaks French, English and Spanish fluently, and is used to living in a community. She knows how to follow instructions and learn from those with more experience. Secretary general of her university's sailing association, she has sailed several types of boats (small cruiser, J80, Surprise, catamaran, dinghy). She admits, however, that she has little sailboat experience and is not yet self-sufficient, but she is very curious and eager to learn. She hopes for a warm crew who enjoy shared moments while respecting each person's privacy. Her father, who also dreams of crossing the Atlantic and has done training courses at Les Glénans as well as sailing in the English Channel, could join the adventure if the boat is looking for two crew members. She will make the trip either way, with or without him.
