Crewseekers Sailing in 2012
Trips for the 2012 sailing season are already coming in with annual westbound Transatlantic migration of yachts getting ready for the warmer weather and fairer winds in the Caribbean and Pacific regions well under way. These are excellent mile building trips for those wishing to complete a Transatlantic by yacht and range from short delivery and assisted passages , holiday and longer sailing adventures, repositioning trips right up to "Round the World " sailing adventures , and everything in between.
Jobs for our professional members are already being posted for the 2012 sailing season - take a look at our Professional Sailing pages as owners and companies do tend to plan well ahead for the busy summer season and are looking for contact from prospective candidates now.
This is a also good time to remind our members to consider the safety factors when planning a sailing trip away from home.
Please see our safety checklist page for lots of tips - these have been developed by Crewseekers over the past 21 years from our members real travel experiences and we hope you find them useful pointers.
We also recommend that all members have adequate insurance to cover unforseen events which sometimes happen - see details below.
Wishing you lots of great, and safe, sailing in 2012 wherever you are !
