    Ahoy Peter!
    We would like you to use your boat name as the registered name rather than your first and last name. Also, we would like your homeport as the official address. Now that you are signed up, it is easy to do. Go to your page, and in the top right-hand green box, click on settings. You will see your name, just change that to your boat's name. Also, under birthday, choose "don't display". Under gender, we prefer you choose "Don't display". If you fill in the zip code for your homeport, it will list that as your city and state. Thanks!

    Ahoy Peter, Our 23 year old daughter will be coming to New Zealand next month with a work visa. She is hoping to find work in the yachting world. She has a 100 ton Coast Guard License and has sailed her entire life. If you have any ideas for her please pass them along. She is great with a varnish brush as well as trimming a jib.
    Buzz sent along the info on your boat and we are waiting to see some photos. Anchors aweigh

    Greetings from FIN. Sorry I have had computer problems for several weeks and not been able to respond to you.

    When does your daughter arrive in Auckland? I am a member of 5 yacht clubs based at Westhaven, Auckland. Some of these have a crew finding service and I can put your daughter in touch with them.

    At present FIN is out of the water undergoing major repairs and I will not be able to offer your daughter a sail until June or so. For how long is she staying in New Zealand?

    Would a contact phone number for me help? I can send a mobile number which she can txt.

    Best regards
