HYC Crew Finder
HYC boasts one of the largest membership bases in Ireland but with so much activity at the Club, it can sometimes be tricky to find a way to connect those looking to crew with boats seeking crew members, unless you know where to look.
Enter Crew Finder, a software powered by Railmeets and designed to connect you with the right member to get you on the water!
So how does it work exactly?
Sometimes seeing is believing so watch the demo video below to get a better understanding of how it works.

The Crew Finder site can be used for all types of sailing to connect boats and Crew. Cruising - Day Sails, Cruising Port to Port and obviously Club Racing. It doesn't have to be a permanent requirement either - Sometimes Skippers are just looking for Crew for a specific event and Crew might only be available for specific events.
The more information you give regarding your sailing skills, location, etc., the easier it will be for those seeking crew to find you! We also have the opportunity of Delivery trips looking for Crew and Crew looking for adventures!
Have a look around, if you are a boat owner, put your boat up, if you are looking for a boat to sail on, put yourself up. It is easy and will open up new crew and sailing opportunities for HYC members. If you need any help in this area and email [email protected].
