Looking for kiters to help me sail my sail boat (43 foot Benetau) from the Med back to Australia via the ultimate kiting spots - bit like Cabrinha Quest. I am a keen wave kiter trying to live the dream. Need to be able to take a few months off at least and BYO kite gear. First leg will be Med to Canaries mid next year. Second leg - Canaries across the Atlantic. Third leg through the Caribbean. Final leg across the Pacific. Experience sailing an advantage - so you know you don't get sea sick! Lots more details available. Make contact if interested.

Man Im suss on dudes that want to give me a lift when im hitchhiking, never mind someone offering a free kite trip on a luxury yatch through the Mediterranean

All jokes aside this sounds like an amazing opportunity for someone

Here's a snap shot of the last 3 years - excuse the low budget videos and yes we were in party mode from Italy to Ibiza and everywhere in between ;)

Here's the launch technique from the boat -

Big boats need a crew to sail them. I'm looking for a crew who want to kitesurf chasing waves, as well as sail.

You will be paying in some way for sure.

Just pay your way - your food and contribute equally to running expenses - fuel and marinas. Last few years cost about $25 a day on average - cheap because we prefer to sail (free) and anchor rather than go to over priced marinas. What's in it for me is I get a free crew to search for kite spots. I can't afford $100 a day to pay for each crew member for 2-3 months. I'm just a regular Aussie with a cool boat.
