Sailboats enthusiast. Ocean, Wind & Sails as a way of life.
Been aboard my sailboat since I bought and refurbish her 6 years ago, always at the anchor. I move using the wind, rowing my dinghy, even having a working engine. Don't like burning fuel.
Mostly vegetarian. No proseced food. Love cooking healthy.
I'm a minimalist, no fridge, no TV, bucket shower on deck, etc. My philosophy, less is more.
I'm a DIYer, solo sailor, social, adict to music, nature, peace, culture.
I have been working on sailboats for 12 years, charters, deliveries and maintenance mostly.
Before sailboats I lived on camper vans in Europe/Central America.

You will get the benefits of being full time aboard, anchored in beatiful places around the archipiélago, learn how life is on a sailboat, learn to sail, to anchor, to read the weather, to deal with daily routines of cruisers life, sunsets/sunrises on 360° horizon life, we can also practice spanish and trade skills.
You can learn skills that will be handy for further sailboats work.
I need a hand in some maintenance chorres as: cleaning, paint/varnish, sewing, polishing metals, wood work, etc
There are also more specific/technics projects, all will depend on your skills...
This is a perfect position for someone who want to learn how life is aboard, out of the grid, also learn about sailing and boat maintenance.
