I have space foe 1-3 people, house is big and has great views and is in a good area.. have a beer!
I will take you snorkelling, fishing or caving....depending on weather you will be able to do atleast one of these and they are really good...
We work 4.5 hours each day, and have atleast one day off a week.

We take turns cooking, ( i supply all food.)

Alessandro is the most awsome workawayer... he stayed with me for 2 months, during the corona lockdown, luckerly he was the best worker ive ever had to stay, we dug, we sanded, we painted, all at full speed. and probably the best cook too, he can make something great out of anything, or nothing. and generally a positive, helpful , no hassels guy.… read more

Melisa came to my house and was a great help , doing hard work digging in the ground and helping out on lots of things with the renovation, a very cool and positive person. unfortunately she had to leave to become a pirate on a ship, but she is welcome back anytime.

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

Frederikke
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.

Lea was an excellent crew member on my boat, she would be a good sailor I think.
She picked up skills very quickly, has a very good work ethic, She is very practical and and engaging person who is level headed beyond her years. Excellent crew.

I stayed with Simon on his boat Julie Marie for 1 week and it was so cool!
Thank you very much Simon, the kiwi man of all the oceans. It was really good to discover more about sailing, life on a boat, calm life and beauty of the sea. We also saw some dolphins playing with the boat in my first day, magic!!
Simon is very kind, cultivated,… read more

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
