Have you just finished your navigation course and want to try out your skills, or perhaps you fancy the delights of cruiser racing. Perhaps you have had enough of being dunked in the water and needing a wet suit, be warned cruiser racing isn't always warm and dry! Skippers are frequently looking for crews. If you wish to crew please send an email to the secretary secretary@pyra.org.uk with information you wish put on this page. Information will be cut and pasted from the body of the email and displayed for 2 months. Resend your email again if you require it re-published. PYRA do not warrant the competence of skippers or seaworthiness of their yachts. Crews should satisfy themselves of the competence of skippers and seaworthiness of their yachts .
9th August I've just moved to Poole from London and am keen to get out on the water sailing, meet new people and learn new racing skills. My experience is mostly cruising rather than racing. I have plenty of humour and common sense rather than tons of experience so if you would like another pair of hands I’m very willing! I have spent about twenty weeks over about twenty years enjoying cruising the Solent, Channel and Irish Sea. I have competent crew RYA.

From David Ceaton: I have now fully retired down to Poole and I am available for crewing at most times. I have managed to sail on a J24 and an Elan 29.5 on Monday evenings but would like to knotch up my crewing log book with the club [Parksone YC]. My wife has also joined [Parkstone YC] and would enjoy some gentle cruising and possibly a gentle race. I can be contacted on my mobile 07803 148164 or at home on 01202 759 668. Regards David Ceaton
Renewed Jan 2007 (20/07/06) Gary Palmer I'm interested in gaining experience on a variety of different boats and meeting loads of nice people. I've been racing now for a few years from Royal Lymington YC and Parkstone YC but I got started out in Oz working on ex-Whitbread racing yachts around the Whitsunday Islands (cooking, cleaning and deck-hand). I've got my Australian Yachting Federation Competent Crew (but I'm English) and I've been sailing and racing on a Sweden 38, Sigma 32, Benetau First 31.7, a thing called a Young 7.4 (bit like a J24), RS400 and Windsurfing. I'm pretty competent but would just like to gain more experience and have fun. I've also done a few channel crossings and round the Island. Give me a call on 07967 025 306 or e-mail me on zimzallabim@lycos.co.uk or grab me in the bar! Cheers Gary Palmer
I am 27 years old, have been sailing since I was 9 aboard a variety of yachts, principally MG335, X332 and similar. I have complete my RYA Coastal Skipper exams and sailed in excess of 6000 miles around the South Coast, Channel Islands, North France etc. I am keen to do inshore and offshore racing weekdays or weekends. I am keen and motivated. I live near Poole and have a car. I hope you will let me know if you require any crew? Thank you. David Selwyn 0771 511 9590 ds797@hotmail.com
