Description
Hello travelers and ocean lovers!
Update: we're reaching the end of our project. Mainly painting skills needed. Or more advanced with installing doors, water systems,...
Enjoy life aboard a sailboat around beautiful islands in the Caribbean ocean. We're some friends coming from different parts of the world, but now found our (temporary) home in this amazing place. We live on sailboats around the islands of Bocas del Toro. Recently we started a new project by renovating an old boat into a rental and event space (not sailable anymore). Since everyday is a new adventure, it would be nice to get some helping hands. Let us know your skills or what you're open for to learn, but be ready to put in some effort. Enjoy this opportunity to get to know life on the water.
Our days usually start by a beautiful sunrise, breakfast and a drive to our project boat. We put in some hours of work and have a break by jumping in the water (it can get hot sometimes). The boat is close to coral reef, which makes a cool snorkeling spot. Everyday is different, but together we'll decide what hours/work suits you best.
Looking for independent people! You'll live on a different sailboat by yourself or shared with another person, depending on availability. The boats are anchored close to town (Isla Colon), so it's easy to reach by taxi, by rowing or catch a ride with our dinghy if we're headed in the same direction ;)

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
This is a great opportunity to learn more about life on a boat. The basic tasks and 'survival skills'. 2 of us speak fluent Spanish and English, so you can practice your languages. In your spare time you can learn to surf or hike in the jungle. You can go on a bike ride to the amazing beaches or go snorkeling and discover the corals and fishes. Bocas is well known for its nightlife. Or maybe we can organize our own little boat parties together.
Aide
We mainly need help in the project boat. The boat is anchored for good, so no sailing help needed!
Tasks can be painting, sanding, carpentry, cleaning, building, crafts, decorating, ... It's not the most heavy work and you'll get tasks based on your skills ;)
We expect you to work 15h-20h/week. This can be spread over 5 days or less. We will work together or give you tasks to complete independently.
No food is provided, but we can cook together on occasions.

Hébergement
You'll live on a sailboat by yourself or shared with another person, depending on availability. There's kitchen with cooking utensils, a toilet inside and an outside/inside shower. In the marina you can get a payed hot shower.
The boat is anchored close to town, reachable by taxi ($1), rowing (kajak provided) or hop on on our dinghy. Ofcourse we'll help you out with water and gas supply.
There is no wifi on board, but you can buy a sim card for $5 a week with unlimited data. Electricity is provided for lights and to charge your phone. No food is provided, but we can cook together on occasions.
Autres infos...
As you'll live by yourself on a boat, we expect you to be independent and have the necessary self reliance skills. Ofcourse we'll be reachable by phone in case of emergencies.
It would be amazing if the boat gets ready to rent out this season, so we try to work in turbo mode. But our lives or not super structured. We love to enjoy the moments and try to fit in a lot of fun besides the hard work.
