Sailing Trip Lymington - Cherbourg | 27- 30 May (Bank Hols) *DELETED*

Re: Qualified day skipper

I haven't taken it personally, in fact it's been quite constructive.

He is coding the boat, I beleive he's got it scheduled for June. He just wanted me to try and get some crew together. If I'd read the ad, being as keen as I am to actually sail, rather than just subscribing to the idea, I would have got in touch.

As I've mentioned, if anyone is looking for someone who is genuinely interested in sailing, make contact!
 
Why are you charging rather than just covering expenses? Is your "Friend" charging you? i.e. renting the boat out to you? There appears to be a number of anomolies that legally could result in you being in the proverbial should anything go wrong!

Regards.

Peter.

As others have noted if you charge (not a share of costs) it is commercial venture, and you need; a qualified skipper, the boat coded and surveyed (not just coded) and insured as a commercial vessel.
You will also need a written passage plan.
Much easier just to share costs, unles you really do want to make money.
