CREW WANTED

I am retiring in March 2010 after 30+ years in the Police Service and hope to go cruising on my yacht called “Parity”, a 31 ft Moody, equipped with  all normal safety gear including a Liferaft , Epirb and radar.
I am looking for a maximum of 3 further crew members, sailing experience required but can be varied.  Come and join me for a week or two, or maybe the whole of my cruise, around the UK.  The cruise will start in early May and end in late July, 2010.
The passage plan is to cruise clockwise around the coast of the UK in day sails or overnight sails on the longer passages, passing through the Caledonian Canal.

 The rough passage plan is to stop at Dartmouth, Plymouth then Newlyn maybe go to the Scilly Isles and then cross the Irish Sea to a port on the South East coast of Ireland depending on the wind direction. We will then cruise north up the coast to Portrush, cross the North Channel to Islay, Jura and Mull then on to Forth William taking the Caledonian Canal to Inverness. I will then sail back down the East coast of Scotland and England stopping where we can, eventually crossing the Thames estuary and stopping at either Ramsgate or Dover, then on to Southampton.

Anyone interested please contact me to discuss the Cruise further.

Crew wanted for Change of Course

I am again looking for crew for next 2010 and would like to hear from anyone interested in either of the following.

Firstly in June 2 handed Round Britain and Ireland consisting of 5 races of about 500 miles each with rest days in between, this will take about 1 month.
Then in August the Round Britain and Ireland Race but crewed non stop taking about 16 days. I would hope for a crew of 6 hopefully experienced, but a couple with limited experience would be OK.
Ring to discuss if interested and if you have friends that are non club members this is also OK.
