Europe -> Brazil as experienced deckhand couple, early 2025, for a meaningful project
Hello sailors !
My girlfriend and I interested in finding a position as a deckhands to sail from Europe to Brazil early 2025 for a meaningful project. We are both experienced deckhands on cruising sailboats, see below for details.
Who are we?
We are 2 engineers and serial climate education activists: for the past 4 years, as long-standing members of the NGO Climate Fresk, we have been devoting our volunteer and professional energies to raising awareness and educating citizens, with the aim of contributing to the changes needed to build a low-carbon society.
We work with citizens, students and but also for executives in the public and private sectors.
In addition, we are smily people, always down for a laugh and chat :)
What is our sailing experience ?
We are both experienced deckhand with the following skills :
* Be an experienced deckhand and actively participate in the running of the boat: reactivity, relevance of actions, knowledge and execution of essential maneuvers at all stations.
* Not to provoke risky situations: anticipate and manage risks in maneuvers.
* Know how to position the boat and have a good knowledge of maritime context (buoyage, map reading, documentation, etc.).
We both acquired those skills from sailing camps. On my side, I have already taken part in a 6,500km-long crossing from Auckland, NZ to Darwin, Australia (3,600 nautical miles).
What will we be doing in Brazil?
COP30 will be held in Brazil in November 2025. It's been 10 years since South America hosted a COP. So this is an opportunity to raise the topic of the climate issue on the continent. Ideally, we'd like to travel to Brazil in early 2025 to accelerate the deployment of the Climate Fresk in Brazil in the few months leading up to the COP, and to represent the association at the COP itself.
What about you ?
