  • Descrição

    Descrição

    I own a 52ft sailboat located in Hawaii that I am in the process of refitting for offshore sailing.
    The vessel may be sailing thru the Hawaain islands during this refit period. We are presently located in Hilo on the big island.
    The vessel is anchored offshore.
    We use a small dingy to go back and forth to shore.
    There is a farmers market nearby for relatively inexpensive fresh produce.

    Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

    I've been sailing all my life and have over eighty thousand blue-water miles under my keel (and as many coastal) and enjoy sharing my knowledge and teaching people how to sail.
    I am happy to pass on my years of sailing experience to others.
    My hobbies include close up / slight of hand magic, photography, drones (both air quadcopters and undersea drones).
    If you are a calm person with a positive attitude that has a curiosity for the natural world and enjoys experiencing (and respecting) other cultures this might be for you.
    There is much to explore in Hawaii as it is a year-round paradise for hiking and water sports.

  • Ajuda

    Ajuda

    The re-rigging of the vessel (new wires that hold up the mast) is almost complete. Other help aboard involves sanding and painting , the boat recently completed a 16,000 mile non-stop ocean voyage and can use a good cleaning and a new coat of paint inside and out.

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    You will have a stateroom or berth (bunk) with a curtain for sleeping quarters. The vessel has an electric Head (toilet) and portable shower.
    A spacious galley (kitchen) with a propane stove.
    Electricity is provided by solar panels; There is charging ports available for small items like phones and tablets and small current drawing items but there is not usually power available for larger items such as laptops etc. There is a good library in the town that has free charging stations for larger items. If the sun is shining brightly all day we can charge a laptop using the ships inverter but as some days are overcast I wanted to let you know that's not always possible.

  • Algo mais...

    Algo mais...

    The bus service on the island is free.
    There is much to explore here. This is my favorite island in the chain. The people are very friendly and laid back. From active volcanoes and lava tubes to black and green sand beaches with turtles and warm tropical waters. It's a hiker and water-sport paradise.
