CONTACT DETAILS

If you are interested in contacting me on Mantra, please get in touch. My email address is: paulonmantra@yahoo.com

I live aboard Mantra all the time but, during the winter, will also be in England at times for short visits. When in England I am on mobile 0779 275 4711 and I am usually at Midhurst, West Sussex.

My Cyprus mobile / cell phone is normally switched on all the time, regardless of where I am.  The number is (00 357) 99 647 619.  I get local cellphone SIM cards when I am going to be somewhere for an appreciable period of time and I give the number in the Immediate Plans & Summary section.

If neither phone number works then it will either be because of poor connection or because I am temporarily out of range. Please try again or send an email.

I can also be sent faxes via a number in UK. Send your fax to +44 (0)870 135 1733 and it will be sent on to my E-mail address.

I try to get a Wi-Fi connection whenever a useful one is available and use Skype.

My Skype contact name is paulonmantra

Do feel free to ask whatever questions you would like to put to me.

Good luck in making contact.

INFORMATION NEEDED

What is required from you:

 Re-assurance that you have read carefully all the contents of this website and that you relate to what I am doing, what I am looking for, the do's & don'ts, etc and that you have no problems with what you have read. I also need re-assurance that you believe you meet the "specification" and that you consider you are likely to have an enjoyable time cruising with me on Mantra. If you have any problems or doubts, then we need either to resolve them before you join or we need to break off / postpone.

Information about you, your health, why you consider that you will not suffer from seasickness (or an assurance that you will take anti-seasickness stuff as needed), information about what you will be bringing to the party, what sailing or motor cruising experience you have had, what "skills" you bring.

Information regarding your timeframe parameters, if any.

How you will be able to support yourself, meet any "bond" requirement and participate in the "food, fees, etc" kitty for the period involved; or information about your finances to justify why you need subsidising.
