Good suggestion,
15 years ago as my daughter was graduating Case , she said , “bad news
is I am moving to Baltimore, so I can’t crew for you this summer, but
the good news is, that Mac (a friend of hers from Case) just got a job
at the Erie GE, and he can sail for you”
And he has been on the boat ever since, turned into a great crew.
(look for engineering students!)

Hey Francois,
I was thinking of you when I started this thread. I like your
comments on how the female changes the male behavior.
Your son might be able to recruit some college friends on board. I
remember my son brought a couple guys on board and they brought
friends who turned into a pretty good team.

I wish there was a secret formula on that beyond who you already
know, luck, time, and lots of patience..
This year I decided to up our game and go spinnaker class only to
be reminded (Too many times) why I didn't do it in the past.
Main reason for staying JAM before: crew.
Main challenges this year: crew.
Seems you have to kiss a lot of frogs before finding your charming
princes.
I'll give the only one factor that made a lot of difference: Try
to find a nice lady or two.
When she's on board 2 things happen:
1) The language gets cleaned-up
2) The guys that normally just sit around not doing much beyond
pretending they're running a talk show seem to magically become
more enterprising and useful. Apparently the macho thing is still
alive and well
As for us, as much as I love the challenge and action when flying
a conventional spin, I'm seriously considering going back to JAM
Good luck !
