Unless you are a pretty serious sailor you'll struggle with crossing the Atlantic or Pacific though.
It's possible to crew for others. When we sailed across the Atlantic ten years ago (on a sail training ship), one of the people on board was for the first time on a sailboat.
That's great! What an experience for them. Quite impractical for most, though, I assume. How long did it take you?
The actual Atlantic crossing was 14 days
That's quite a bit shorter than I expected actually! But, sadly still not really approachable for most people.
