After 12 years and 26,000 views, I have met and sailed with a lot of crew. Mostly it has been great fun and that comes from setting expectations. My yacht has been my home for a while, and I am not a business. I have made some wonderful friends on board and hope to make many more.

The yacht has plenty of room for privacy when needed as well as large open social spaces. Mutual respect and sensitivity to a group dynamic are key to enjoyment at sea.
