Experienced Volunteer Crew Member Available - USA and Sweden Dual Citizen
Experienced Volunteer Crew Member Available
Hello, my name is Dylan, and I am passionate about sailing and seamanship. I recently obtained my Merchant Mariner Credential and will be starting a deckhand apprenticeship in June 2025. Until then, I am available to volunteer as crew aboard liveaboard sailboats.
I understand that crewing is not a vacation—I'm prepared to contribute and work hard. I have experience standing watch, steering day and night, cooking in the galley, maintaining and cleaning the vessel (including scraping the hull), and assisting with various tasks to keep the boat running smoothly.
Most recently, I crewed on a sailboat in the Caribbean, gaining hands-on experience in navigation, deck operations, and daily vessel upkeep. I can provide a reference from the captain upon request.
On a side note, I also speak Swedish fluently, so if that ever comes in handy, I’m happy to use it!
If you’re looking for a capable and dedicated crew member, I would be honored to be part of your crew. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Fair winds,
Dylan
