Hi sail enthusiasts!
I don't know if I'm on the right forum to ask this, but me and my girlfriend are looking for an opportunity to join a sailboat to cross anywhere on the English East Coast to anywhere in Holland for my girlfriend to see what it's like to sail a boat from one place to another and the boating lifestyle. Myself, I did the crossing the other way around from Den Helder to Lowestoft on the Dutch Naval sailboat the Urania couple years back in my days in the Royal dutch navy.
I'm Dutch and my girlfriend is British and is a rescue diver. We both work in aviation as a pilot and purser. We hope to find a sailboat who's willing to accommodate us to give us a ride and perhaps we can help out on the boat, hoist sails, clean the boat, kitchen duties or guard duties. I would like her to witness the adventure for perhaps in the future I would like to own my own boat one day.
We are happy to pay a small fee if necessary as well.
Hope to meet up soon!
Or if anyone has any other ways how to get in contact with a boat owner or skipper to try this crossing, please advice.
Thank you very much, and hope to hear from you.
Cheers.
P and C.
