--► I Dont do workaway in the cold wintertime, so please, dont ask for it! When i have a free host, i write it in my calendar!
Ahoi Workawayer,
I’m Marcel, a Swiss design engineer in mechanical. Since many years I’m on my way to build my own aluminium catamaran (a boat with 2 hulls) for to sail around the world. The idea is to travel independent of petrol, only with wind, electricity and gas. Also the engines work with electricity. I want to show that it is possible to travel in an ecological way without disturbing our planet.
I found 2015 in Amsterdam a casco of a catamaran (only the hull) in a good condition, perfect for my project. The catamaran is in a shipyard in Amsterdam Nord, very close to the city of Amsterdam. I hope to start my World trip soon. Up to this milestone it’s a lot of work. And I am looking for nice workawayer to help or collaborate me and my project.

It's sometime a hard work, but the most of time a filigran work, so you need the sens about details. But step by step you can see it growing. Sometimes we work together, sometimes you work on your own.
We build windows, stairs, floors, walls, ceiling, plumbing, sits, furniture, kitchen, bathroom, mast, sailboat stuff, …
I need helping hands with experience in this kinds of work because to work with some machines can be dangerous, when you hav'nt enove experience. Also think about this: This work is not a game, my life and the life from my crew on sea depends on your work! So your help is a worthwhile.
We share also to cook.
