They can visit exotic destinations and shoot (and surf) spots known and unknown. For more details check out "A Seagoing Hitchhikers Guide to Cruising the World on Other Peoples Yachts". The following are planned sailboat departures from California (Bay Area or So. Cal), the greater U.S. West Coast, Mexico and Florida. Contact the parties listed.
