Hi, I’m Simon,

I have a house with a big yard that im going to renovate and make pretty again. its in a nice little suburb about 15 min walk to to shops and 30 min to whangarei center. lots to do, I make sure I take everyone to the local caves ( they are really good) and show them around , I can also pay people if they want to do extra work as Im keen to get the house finished, I have had about 40 people come and stay over the years helping me out with various projects.

I had a great time during my stay on the boat with Simon. The sailing was amazing, and going at anchor at sea and on the river was beautiful, being in nature, seeing every sunrise, sunset, wild animals. We also had a wonderful day in Seville. Simon is a super kind and nice person and very easy to spend time with. If you like to go on an adventure,… read more

Great to have Marlene onboard for about 10 days on the sth coast of Spain. She is very good at picking up the sailing skills, and helping out on board. We only got to do one proper day sailing on the coast because of a lack of wind, but we spent 4 days on the river to Seville. It was very easy to have her stay, she is open minded positive person… read more

The time with Simon has been the best I’ve had in NZ.
We worked great together. I planted my first palm-tree in my life and water the avocados. And in his beautiful house we prepared walls for painting. After that I cleaned the windows. Simon always made sure that I was okay and showed me great places. Thank you for the great time, and I hope I’ll… read more

Is a very easy person to have as crew, no problems with her at all, always able to do what ever jobs was asked, and although she had limited sailing experience before joining, she proved to be good and reliable, and able to steer the boat well. She is a very relaxed and easy going person.

Had a great time with Simon sailing from England to the south of France. Taught me a lot and gave me plenty of time at the helm. When we weren't sailing we had a lot of fun and some great conversations. Would recommend and would definitely sail again with him again.

Luke was able to join my yacht at short notice, and the next dat we sailed 24 hrs straight from uk to France, so he was given a big test straight away, but all went well and he stayed on for another 2 weeks, during which time we sailed down the whole french coast. Luke is good fun to have around , plays a good guitar, and was there to help me with… read more
