Does anyone need a hardworking sailor for their ground crew this season? I run a rigging company and sail 49ers/college/big boats. I really want an opportunity to get involved and work hard for a team.

Dan

you do realize that it's a volunteer/work for free position right?

Something that's equally as important as skills is attitude and temperment.

yeah, i know
I just really want to be a part of this kind of racing, and was thinking that the best way to get involved was by being a ground crew and learning. I'm in it for a quality experience not money.

Where do you live and how far are you willing to travel?

Im in school in Ann Arbor, Mi. But I go to Fl alot to sail 49ers. I'll travel to wherever the races are, obviously south right.

Boomerang,
Check your PM mail box.

boomerang, if you end up as part of Team Chums, there is a Team Seacats stipend for any fiberglass resin that shows up on your finger.

Jake, if there is any fiberglass work being done, you'll be tied to the nearest palm tree until it sets.

How 'bout glass him to the Palm tree ,then he can just poke himself.

Dan,

You are a "Monohull sailor" ???

So someone must warn you .... are you sure you want to join "The Dark Side (of sailing)" and sail MULTIHULLS!!! Your monohull friends may want to commit you to some institution where the staff dresses all in white and they have these funny jackets for you the lace up the back w/ really long sleeves that they tie together behind your back ... and the rooms are so nice and soft ... some people say that they're "padded" ...

WARNING ... WARNING ... WARNING ...

You are about to get involved w/ a group of miscreants that like to sail anywhere ... sail anytime ... sail hard ... and sail fast ...

But a nicer group you will not meet anywhere else ....

Sail Flat, Sail Fast, Sail Safe
