TRAVELMANAGER Kylie Gretener’s
business ‘Find a Crew’ recently assisted
in finding an appropriate sailing boat
and crew members for a story for
Channel 10’s The Living Room, hosted by
one of Australia’s most recognised
television celebrities – the Bondi Vet,
Chris Brown.
“At the time, we only knew it was a
new lifestyle show on a major network
with a well-known presenter,” Gretener
said.
“Then I was asked to also be part of
the crew, so you can imagine my delight
when I found out that my fellow crew member was to be the Bondi Vet!
“It was a tough job but someone had to do it,” she added.
As part of the story the crew spent three days sailing and exploring the Whitsunday Islands.
“It also allowed the cast and crew more time to connect – simulating a real life situation of
going sailing with a group of strangers,” Gretener said.
Gretener launched Find a Crew in 2004, and joined TravelManagers in Jun this year, saying that
she recognised that TravelManagers and Find a Crew could work hand in hand.
“On findacrew.net, boat owners and prospective crew can connect from all around the world.
Once people are connected, nine times out of ten they need travel arrangements to be sorted, in
order to get to and from the boats,” she said.
Find a Crew has 67,000 registered members with 600-900 members signing in every day.
