CURRENT & URGENT: We are looking for a boat keeper and cat sitter. See the section below.
July-August we already have a Workawayer on board.
September might be still an option (end can be a bit flexible, latest mid of October).
---
We are a traveling family with three children: two lively boys (13 and 8), a toddler girl (3) and two adults. We, Madeleine and Arne, are just around 40 and probably nice people. In Trinidad we have adopted two kittens.
We live on our sailboat and have been traveling "full time" since 2019. As you might imagine, we love being outdoors and always experiencing new things. We appreciate a resource-reduced and simple life. We speak German, English and very limited French.
After sailing in and around Greece, we found a bigger and more stable boat on the other side of the Atlantic. So we sold our boat in the Mediterranean and bought this project boat in the Caribbean. Our new boat is a Reinke 15M made of aluminum. Last year, we spent six months in Trinidad doing a major refit - that means we repaired and replaced almost everything, from the engines to the electrics, the plumbing, the paint, ... Everything needed a lot of love and care. We had planned to only do the most important technical things so that we could get the boat back in the water as quickly as possible. Of course, it took us longer than expected.
Now we are back in the water, but there is still a lot to renovate, especially inside, to make our home beautiful, practical and cozy. Any help is welcome - people with boatbuilding or similar skills are very welcome – but for it to work with us, you also have to get on well with the children and agree to take part in family life in general.
The photos show us and a few of the beautiful sides of sailing. But don't be mistaken - life on board is often quite strenuous and involves a lot of work. Working on a boat is also rarely easy - it's often dirty or in a very cramped environment.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

You will get to know a part of boat life. You will meet nice people (boaters community, including us :)), and see Cartagena.
Arbeit
We would be able to pick you up also in June in Jamaica or East Cuba. And sail down to Colombia mid / end of June.
We are looking for someone who would like to live on our boat in Cartagena from early July to the end of September (so best arrive End of June maybe). We will fly to Europe and cannot leave the cats there alone. The person must be reliable, commit firmly to this period, and in the best case have some technical understanding, as things on boats are often quite sensitive. It's good to be able to help yourself in unexpected situations. But let's talk about this in person.
The boat would stay in the water in a Marina, easy access to land and toilets, showers etc. in the Marina.
If you feel up to the task and are looking forward to a great time in the Caribbean, get in touch!Sprachen
