I have a lot of experience sailing medium size keel boats - I worked at the Boston Sailing Center in Boston, MA during college and sailed all sorts of keel boats, from J-24 to C%C 40. Very nimble, good helmsman, strong enough to grind winches. I'm fast and have good reflexes. I'm a nice guy and get along great with people. I'm the Executive Director of the Marin Symphony. I am happiest trimming main or jib, or driving. |

I am looking to get out on the water again this spring and summer. I have successfully completed my bareboat classes and will be working towards my captains license soon. I sail a laser around the local lakes and reservoirs but I seem to spend more time in the water than on the boat. My racing experience is limited but I am here to learn. I am up for anything and I am more than willing to help out with chores. |

I have some sailing experience. My parents had a sailboat. When I lived in Europe I took some sailing courses. Most of my sailing experience has been day drips but I have also been on a couple multi-day cruising vacations. Love watching the Volvo Ocean Race and America's Cup. Have the bug to get into racing myself. I don't have racing experience yet. Thought the best way to learn would be from experienced racers in need of crew who are willing to teach an eager student. My wife is also a sailor and interested. We are new to San Francisco and look forward to making friends with others who share our love of sailing. |

Many years ago I did the foredeck on a boat in the Knarr fleet. Moved away but stayed into sailing and own a Hunter 36 which I use for cruising with family. Would be interested in any low-key racing that might be out there. |

I have a few years of sailing experience, but only 3 or 4 races under my belt. My ideal would be to find a crew that regularly races and learn with them so I could get to know jobs one by one and develop my skill. |

I am experienced rail meat. 210# strong, fit and comfortable in heavy seas. Raced on Lake Michigan about 10-15 times on the fastest boat in the Milwaukee Yacht club. They only called when they needed extra meat on the rail and some strong arms to grind. Spent my youth sailing scows on inland lakes, so I'm used to being wet & tipping over for that matter, racing in very close quarters with very many boats. so, call me when it's blowing like snot |

Been sailing for 15 years, from 420s to J120s. 2nd place at 2008 Lightning Junior World Championships, 3rd at North Americans, and 5th at 2008 Farr 40 East Coast Championship. I just recently moved to San Francisco from Boston and just really want to get back on the water. |

Intelligent, capable, ready to work sailor with 3 years of experience. Learned to sail in South America, in Punta del Este, Uruguay. Did 1 year of sailing lessons and then went on to get the local yacht club's boating license to be allowed to use their boats with no instructor supervision. Sailed mainly a 4-5 person 21' boat. Currently living in San Francisco, sailing on J105 and also on a Farallon Clipper 38. Eager to continue cruising and racing, learning more in any way possible. Intermediate racing experience, would love to improve and perfect my Bow skills! |

Bay and Ocean racer since 2004. Farallones veteran. ASA Courses completed: 101,103,104. Skippered three different trips on a 40', 50', and 54' to Caribbean and Greece respectively. Easy going, generous with beer, and not the type to leave before the mess is cleaned up. Looking forward to hearing from you! |

I have many years of experience racing on SF Bay campaigning a Santana 35 and crewing on many other boats. I want to crew on a competitive boat where I can contribute some of my extensive experience and have a good time. I can perform well in any position and particularly like coaching crew members. |
