Alan, I sailed in the first ARC twenty years ago, and it was excellent!
You mention all your experience and abilities - all very useful for sure, however I think that for a transatlantic crossing the most important ability / talent must be to simply get along with your shipmates!
This includes (ideally) being a non-smoker, always be keen and cheerful, even when woken for your watch at 0200 hrs, a dab hand in the galley when it comes to doing your share of the cooking (and even more importantly, the washing-up) - and if you can also have a go at fixing things, and pay your way for reasonable daily expenses for food, then you will be a crew member-in-a-million, and much in demand, for sure!
