I am a 62 year old experienced sailor. I have owned a number of sailboats (24' to 42') since I was 30 years old. I have navigation and sail trimming skills, and I follow orders well. I would appreciate an invitation to experience the Harvest Moon Regatta

I have a J-130 (43ft J boat) I want to race in the Harvest Moon. I would be in the PHRF Spin class. This will be about a 160 mile course. Looking for a couple of folks that are comfortable working Foredeck. Also could use two additional folks for mid deck and cockpit.

Unfortunately, the boat I was supposed to do the HMR this year, was damaged in the Hurricane in Rockport. I am still looking to do my 5th consecutive HMR and would love the chance to crew with you. I have been fortunate to have raced on a variety of boats during my sailing career. These include a Catalina 22, S29.1, Cal 33, C & C 35, Benateau 40 to mention a few. I have logged over 2500 nm offshore in the Pacific and Gulf of Mexico. In addition, assisted in the delivery of a Santa Cruz 52 (Medusa) from Marina Del Rey, Ca to Bellingham, WA (1200 nm in 16 days). Have competed in the Harvest Moon Regatta (150 nm race from Galveston, TX to Port Aransas, TX) the last 5 years placing 1st in my class and 1st in fleet out of 50 boats in 2013. Placed 2nd in class in 2014. I\'m confident I\'d be a great addition to your boat. I stay in good shape throughout the year and also race every weekend year around on a Tartan 10. I\'d like to add my skills and experiences in a winning the Harvest Moon Regatta aboard your boat. Please contact me at 214-727-3739 and let\'s discuss how we can win.

I have sailed the HMR several times there and back, offshore and in the ditch, in storms and calms. I skippered my own boat from Kemah for seven years. My specialty is making food that can be held in one hand and tossed overboard when conditions dictate. I have been complimented for my wraps. I can bring your boat back too. Physically fit, mechanically inclined, not a drunkard, sweet smelling and a ready source of jokes to while away the long hours at sea.

39 year old active and in shape male with limited sailing experience eagerly wanting to join a team and contribute to a safe and enjoyable 2017 HMR. I have completed ASA 101, have single handed 30'-40' out of Kemah around the bay multiple times as well as San Francisco. I'm looking for my first offshore experience with a capable captain that is willing to share his knowledge. Looking to take coastal cruising courses after getting more time on the water. I am a team player, play very well with others and learn very quickly. Previous pilot, firefighter and now finance professional. I love learning and experiencing new things and sailing is the current one on the list!

I'm a 71 yr old highly experienced racing and cruising sailor. I'm physically fit, I do two sets of 60 push ups every morning. I have more than 40 yrs of sailing experience and I've owned a dozen boats. I have 6000 miles of offshore experience in the Gulf, Atlantic, Caribbean and Pacific oceans. I have raced extensively on Gary Trinkline's "Toccata" and John Dickie's "Petite Helene" on Rum and challenge races on Galveston Bay. I did one Harvest Moon with Walter Harmon on the famous "Firewater". I'd like to do another one. I'm a good sail trimmer, mid deck, helmsman, and Kite handler. I'm also good at beah drinking.

Grady Byram Posted on Sep 27, 2017 11:25 EST
I started sailing last year and in that time I've probably done a dozen races mostly in Rum and Icicle races on Sunspot Baby (Hunter 34). Most of my experience is in the cockpit trimming jib/main or at the helm but I have a little experience with spinnaker (not whisker poled). I'm 46, fit and can move around the boat with ease. I have not sailed offshore but I am adept at managing my sea sickness risk based on significant experience fishing offshore. I have ASA 101 and 103 certs.

Experienced offshore racer looking for a ride. 5 previous HMR including 2 second place finishes as driver and watch captain. I can work any position on the boat and enjoy learning from other like minded sailors as well as sharing what I've learned over my 30 plus years of sailing. I am from Far Northern Wisconsin and have years of offshore experience racing, cruising, and delivering boats on the Great Lakes. I love the HMR and have been lucky to be able crew in Texas as well as bring Texans to the Great Lakes for races such as the Trans Superior and Chicago Mac. Please call me with any available positions on any class of boat. Local references upon request. **Eric 715-614-3408**
