SV Kena 0 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 We are off on a family adventure! The plan is to sail from Wellington up to Auckland at the beginning of April and then leave the Bay of Island with the Island Cruising Association on 5th May bound for Tonga (via Minerva Reef if weather permits) Kena is a Ganley Pacemaker (40ft, steel, cutter rigged monohull). The family will join the yacht in Auckland for the trip to BOI, and then fly out to Tonga. We are looking for crew for either or both legs of the journey. Skipper has 10,000+ offshore miles and 30,000+ coastal miles. RYA Yachtmaster. Kena was built to Lloyds A1 standard and will be Cat1. Crew will need to cover all their own expenses and have a good set of wet weather gear, a Cat 1 compliant lifejacket, complete an Advanced Sea Survival course (For the offshore leg... RPNYC is running one in March), and maybe a First Aid course. More importantly though you'll be up for an adventure and have a well developed sense of humour. Great opportunity for mile building or just getting out there! I have a couple of people interested already and I'm keen to get some sailing in before April so let me know if you are keen! Thanks.

MasterOfDisaster 0 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I'd be keen. Based in welly and I've done a bunch of offshores and coastals. Did my ASS course last year and have all that gear. To my credit I've never done a passage north but have absolutely been meaning to do the trip around east cape. Flick me a PM or call 0211759708 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
