- Name: Louis – experienced looking to crew
Message: We are moving to Hudson from Idaho and I am looking to crew, meet the sailing community in the area and have fun in regattas. I have sailed recently on Laser for regattas and SanJuan21. I have experiences on a variety of boats:
– as crew in regattas: Dufour40 (bow, trim, mast), GrandSoleil50 (overnight helm and all positions), J80 (trim, mast),
– as skipper in regattas: J80, SunFast3200, First36.5, First 25.7, Optimist, 420, Laser.
– leisure: Ponant, Dufour40, A35, GrandSurprise, etc.
I sailed keel boats mainly on the english channel between UK in France, Atlantic shores (France and Spain), and little time on lakes (Finland).I can help with any positions and looking forward to Crew with somebody. Please contact me.
Thank you,
Louis

Message: Hello, Skipper! I grew up in a powerboat family, and bought my first 13′ aluminum rowboat with an outboard by the time I was 12. I sailed my first dinghy as a kid in Scouts, then saved up enough of my lawn mowing money to buy an old Sunfish from a nearby neighbor. Whenever I had a chance, I’d sail my cousin’s sailboard, and then I went off to college, started a career and family. Now, I’m ready to pick up where I left off and registered for this summer’s ASA 101 course with Saint Croix Sailing School. I’m eager to learn on any vessel, and ultimately would love to own a cruiser for retirement. Meanwhile, any time on the water would be time well spent learning the ropes.I live in Woodbury, minutes away from the marina, and I have a flexible work schedule – as I mostly work from home. My daughter is in the Opti class again this year, and we plan on participating on Wednesday Family Race nights! We hope to see you there!

- Name: Philip Burton
Message: Recently moved to Wisconsin from North Carolina. I got my start sailing in high school by racing keel boats offshore. I raced 22′-42′ boats offshore for 6 or 7 years before moving to lightnings (19′ three person boat). I raced lightnings for about 10 years. Our boat won several district championships and I’ve raced in the Lightning North American Championships many times. I generally do foredeck because I’m light and agile, but can do other roles as well. I’ve taken a few years off from sailing and am looking to get back into racing or even just booze cruising. If you’re looking for regular crew or even just a pick-up person, let me know.
