Two sailing companions needed- West New Britain/Ireland PNGCountry forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea | ||
Hi, A friend and I are looking into chartering a yacht for 3-5 days between the 4th and 9th of January 2009. The cost of private hire is $920.00 per night with all meals, excursions, snorkelling and fishing gear included. That would be $690 per person for 3 nights, or $1150 per person for 5 nights. We are both 25, female, from Sydney and pretty laid back. If anyone is interested in jumping in on this charter please get in contact. | ||
Hey, My name's Andrew, from the Central Coast, 30 y/o. A friend and I are planning a south pacific trip around the time of your charter. We are hoping to find some decent waves and enjoy the local culture (wherever it may be). A yachting adventure might fit in nicely. (I was checking this forum for info on surf breaks and prevailing weather conditions. Maybe another door opens.) Are you guys self-skippering? I crewed a beautiful cat from Singapore to Phuket late last year (Malacca Straight) with 4 on board - awesome. Google 'innforapenny' for the blog. Its part of a circumnavigation rally called Bluewater. My travel buddy Snowy is less experienced sailing-wise, but he's a fit and cluey lad, so he would no doubt take to it and learn a lot from the experience. Anyway, making an expression of interest, would be pleased to hear a little more about your plans. Kind regards | 1 | |
