Description

We are a family of 4 (my wife and I, ex professional yacht crew, plus our 2 young kids; 2 and 3 years old) cruising and living on our Beneteau Oceanis 473. We left France 3 years ago and are on our way to French Polynesia.
For this leg we are looking for a competent sailor who can take a solo watch and who is happy to cook one meal per day. We run a 3 watch system and my wife and I take care of the kids.
The visiting rules in the Galapagos are strict so we need to be gone by the 5th of August at the latest.
We cover all the expenses on board but we would like you to take care of your personal expenses including 100USD entry fee in the Galapagos park.
We will need about 5 days to go through the boat and safety before setting sail. We expect the journey to take 3 weeks.
Feel free to join sooner and leave later to enjoy these beautiful destinations.
