WANT TO SAIL IN SAINT BARTH?
Perhaps you are looking for a
boat to sail on, or have a boat
and need crew for a regatta?
Now you can turn to the Lil’E
Saint Barth Sailing School to
help meet your needs. “You
can sail alone for your pleasure.
But to participate in a
regatta, you need a real crew.
And often enough, you can be
short a few sailors. Or after the
end of the regatta that you find
out there were people who
would have liked to participate,
but they didn’t let you know,”
explains Mowgli Fox, director
of the Lil’E Saint Barth Sailing
School. Fox’s new program,
which also exists elsewhere,
allows you to post advance
notice of your needs, as a sailor
or a skipper, via the website:
www.lilestbarth.com, under
“Bourse aux équipiers.” Those
who are looking to sail on a boat
can post their qualifications and
any race wins, as well as what
regattas they are interested in
and the dates they are available,
from actual races to casual sailing,
and the position they hold,
from helmsman to tactician.
“The program is also open to
beginners,” adds Fox. “If you
are a novice, there is always a
chance to earn your sea legs,”
he notes. To be contacted, candidates
should post their email
address or telephone number.
For those who have a boat and
are seeking crew, it is possible
to post an announcement listing
the kind of sailors that are
required.
