I have always wanted to go cruising.
Chartered a couple of boats but many years ago now.
We have lost the nerve to go sailing alone but I still want to do a big trip.
Lately I've been thinking about getting an experience sailor with a good boat to take us from Perth to Cocos Keeling, one way, flying back after a rest
We would be working & helping to sail not lounging
.
This is something I want to do in the near future, maybe a couple of years away.
I am guessing it would take a few weeks even during the trade wind season.
It might even be too rough for novices, I'm not sure.
The big question: how much would it cost to get someone to do this, hopefully they would be continuing on to Africa so it wouldn't be a charter type trip but subsidised leg of a larger trip.
Is this practical?
Would someone from say Eastern Aus stop off at Perth & pick up passengers or would they be going around the top?
We could always s get on in Darwin then
