Mate for blue water delivery

I have recently completed my shorebased Yachtmaster Ocean, and am looking for someone who wants a competent mate to do a long distance delivery for my qualifying passage e.g. Ipswich to Kobenhavn. Must be in school holidays.

Going to Windward

I know a gentleman never does ( :lol: ) but I am toying in my mind the advantages of a fin keel sloop rig over a bilge keel ketch. Of course that's 2 variation: fin v's bilge keel, and sloop v's ketch. Is the difference a few degrees off the wind, or more like 10? :?:
