Very experienced dinghy crew/helm available - 16.4.2002 25 years old, 11 stone and very experienced, based in London (hence why I can't afford my boat). I am very keen to get back into some serious dinghy racing, old results as a helm include Mirror UK Youth and Junior champion, top 3 Mirror inland nationals (many mirror results), Welsh Youth Squad and team captain of a successful university team racing team. I am experienced in a number of classes including Laser 2, Lark, 420, GP 14, Enterprise, Fireball etc. etc. Since graduating a couple of years ago a lack of funds has kept me out of the sport. I am looking to join a competitive fleet and compete on the open circuit (areas, nationals etc.) with a helm who is competing somewhere towards the front.< Are you a competitive helm (or even a crew with a boat) without a crew for the approaching season? Give me a call. I can be contacted on 07971 448 602 or via [email protected] Cheers Mike Bloor

Seeking Position - NW Cruising/Racing 21.1.2002 Hi, I'm 23 and have been sailing/racing dinghies for 12 years.

CREW AVAILIBLE; Hayling Island and Gap Year 21.10.2001 I have spent most of my life around boats and am an experienced crew for dinghy racing at club level. I am interested in finding a dinghy (with trapeze) to crew for in Hayling area, with a mind to working towards events such as next years Federation Week. My experience in larger boats is limited but I have acheived my Day Skipper (shorebased) and yacht racing is something I'd definitely like to have a go at. I've always wanted to take part in Cowes week. Lastly I am currently attempting to organise some form of marine related gap year (starting September 2002) so any infornmation on getting into this area would be very much appreciated. Perhaps stewardessing on charter yachts would be a possibility. Although I don't proffess to be an expert, I am a fast learner and don't mind being shouted at. I weigh 8-9 stone depending on the time of year. Please email me; [email protected]

Laser 3000 Exmouth seeks crew. 8.8.2001 I have a Laser 3000 based in Exmouth Devon, and often lack crew to go out for a casual sail. As I am 12 stone, and the boat doesn't like heavy loads, a crew 8st. - 11st. max. would be best. You will need your own wetsuit/boots, but I can provide buoyancy aid/trapeze harness. Some experience useful, but not critical in trapezing/gennaker operation- I have taught many people over 20 years. You will need to be fairly agile, as the 3000 will bite the slow moving. I am happy to mix and match the front/back end - I enjoy being on the wire when I have confidence in the driver.... Locationally, be best if you are within an hour or so of Exmouth - decisions tend to be short notice and weather based. Possibility of going to open meetings next year, if suitable crew found this year. E mail me at [email protected] or call 01395 266098.
