No wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return
doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success.

I am seeking dependable & motivated crew for hybrid scientific, logistic
support & exploratory (mountaineering) sailboat based expeditions in NW
Greenland, the NW Passage, Patagonia & South Georgia Island over the
next 2.5 years.
Specific boat skills are not required though a strong CV with applied
outdoor experience are. Age, sex, nationality, race or qualifications
are not a concern but I am primarily looking for a blend of
self-sufficiency, character, determination & the ability to act
rationally/think laterally in difficult situations. If you have
anything over & above this to offer such as scientific, mechanical,
technical expertise or even artistic/musical talent - then that is a
bonus.
The sailboat is called Gambo - she is not everyone's cup of tea & nor is
this a luxury cruise. But on a shoe-string & amateur basis, she has
(with an eclectic collection of crew, mountaineers & scientists) notched
up an impressive set of achievements in the last decade and a half
including many years operating (including over-wintering) in the
Antarctic & Greenland as well as various scientific, logistical and
mountaineering 'firsts'. She has also been involved in a number of TV
programmes including the BBC's gong-winning doco - 'Operation Iceberg'.
Just fishing at the moment (ho ho) but there is some small scale funding
& a TV commission in the bag - I am looking for commitment for a minimum
of 2 months that could slot into any of the above enterprises. If
you've got the nerve for a longer-sentence then all the better.
I am also open to scientific suggestions as the boat is & will be
involved in fairly extensive geophysics & hydrographic surveys as she
goes & is also be supporting a fairly ambitious UAV acquisition
programme.
Please get in touch with a CV/outline of experience or a suggestion if
this is of interest to you.
