    List yourself with the Lattitude 38 crew list. You may not know this west
    coast magazine. http://www.latitude38.com/ <http://www.latitude38.com/>
     
    I'd say that if you list yourself, and attend the Baja Ha Ha Crew
    opportunity parties, there is a very good chance you can go at least San
    Diego to Cabo in October, and possibly much farther once you get started
    with someone.
     
    Also, if you change your sex to female, you will have a much better shot
    (just kidding)!!! Shared expenses is also a wonderful thing to be able to
    offer. 100% forget any idea of "paid crew" unless you are looking for a job
    on a megayacht (and thats work not cruising).

    Subject: [world-cruising] Looking to Sail around the World

    I have been working and living in NYC for the past few years and yes, I've
    had
    enough city life to last me a while. So I'm looking to leave after this
    summer.
    I've been all over the web on different crew finding/matching websites
    looking
    for a boat to get on that is planning on sailing around the world, or just
    go
    island hopping in the Carribean or South Pacific or something along those
    lines. Anyone have any suggestions for more places to look, or maybe a good
    website you know of that worked for you... or maybe you are about to do
    something like that and looking for more people to join you? I've emailed a
    few
    captains and there might be some possibilities but I'd love to hear any
    information, suggestions or ideas you might have.

    To be more specific, I'm not looking for a paid position, I have all the
    basic
    skills but not much experience. I have a CYA Basic Cruising certification
    and
    used to teach sailing to kids over the summer (on small boats).

    Thanks
    Jordan
