Looking for a berth in a crew

Eight required questions, the rest optional. Exactly the ones an organiser needs answered to write back to you.

Two feeds and two kinds of organiser: a racer does not read the cruising one, and the other way round.
An organiser counts berths, not people: a couple takes a cabin, one takes half of it.
Not an exam: beginners are taken almost everywhere, just in different positions.
From when to when you can go at all. Not the week of the trip, the whole window: "two of us, any destination, but the dates are tight" is the commonest post in the feed.
Regatta dates are fixed, and hitting one exact week is luck. Give the whole window you can choose from.
Do not know the marina — leave the country. "Turkey, Aegean coast" is enough.
Tick every one you would go to. In the live feed the destination is often a list: "Albania, Greece, Italy, France, Spain — any of them".
An all-women crew is not a wish at the end of the text, it is the format: the boat is put together around it, and people search for that word.
Tick this if the destination does not matter. It is not the same as leaving the place empty: empty means "did not say", and such a request matches nothing.
With no range half the organisers will not answer — they do not want to waste a letter. Autumn 2026 in Turkey, a berth for a week runs 306 to 1850 €.
With no sum, people write "so how much?" instead of "I am in". In the live feed the price is named in 11 posts out of 37, and the ones without it collect up to 97 comments asking the same question. We ask for a number so those 97 are not yours.
A line or two: the holiday is fixed, own sleeping bag, English, seasickness.
Assembled from your answers. Change it if you can say it better.
It will not appear in the ad: only we see it, and we forward the answer to you.

We take no money and are not part of the deal.
The ad stands until the last day of its own dates and then disappears on its own — post it half a year ahead if you like. We clear the board with a job, not with a promise: no dead ads here.
