crew wanted - Chesapeake Bay/Sound of Music cruise

3891 Views 13 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  willyd
For my cruise down the Chesapeake this June I've decided on a Sound of Music theme.



‎I'll be renaming my boat "Edelweiss" for the trip. Interested applicants should be able to ‎read a nautical chart and:‎
• know all the songs from the movie‎
• have confidence in sunshine
• have confidence in rain
• not mind calling me "Captain"‎
• not mind being called, alternately, "Maria", "the Countess" , "Franz", "Liesl", ‎‎"Louisa", "Friedrich", "Kurt", "Brigitta", "Marta" or "Gretl".‎

Preference will be given to applicants who can speak Austrian, play the guitar and sew ‎clothing from drapery material.‎

Food will consist of typical Austrian fare: cheese fondue, beer, hot dogs, apple strudel, ‎schnitzel with noodles (my favorite), Swiss chocolate, SwissMiss cocao, schnapps, etc.‎

Interviews will begin as soon as the weather warms up this spring. Please come dressed ‎as your favorite character. No weirdos, please.‎

Ha, Back some years ago,Julie"s partner decided on a tropical theme birthday party for her to be held up in the Lund area. Huge money spent on barges of stuff brought up from the south, leaving the locals feeling neglected and left out of the cash flow. Big chartered yacht surrounded by most of the lesser mortals of paradise (hippy back woods types). All in semi unison renditions of the 'sounds of' Heard later that Julie was not amused. As an encore, we later did 'donka shaa' for another celeb but never heard from any talent scouts. In spite of that disappointment ,life was good.
