Beautiful-Weather-Volunteers

We have the opportunity to bring in 5 "beautiful-weather-volunteers" next week.

Beautiful-Weather-Volunteers

This means that, if the weather is good, we will have 5 people who can help us scrape, varnish, and tar the masts. You will be seated in a boatswain's chair and lower yourself along one of the masts, starting about 15 meters up. There is no requirement for you to have sailed with us before, but this is not for those afraid of heights!

We provide work clothes and lunch, but you must bring warm clothes to wear under the work clothes (if needed) and sturdy shoes. Since this job only can be done in good weather, it will be cancelled if it rains. Therefore, we prefer that you live nearby and won’t be disappointed if a day gets cancelled.

Sign up via PAAM here.
