Introduction

Hello!

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

We took our 42' Catalina down to the Bahamas from Connecticut in 2017–2018 on the ICW as well as outside a bit with a couple of passages in the Atlantic. We cruised the Bahamas for several months before returning to Florida and then back up the ICW to Connecticut. During Covid in the summer of 2020, we took Full Circle up to Maine on a 6 week trip. We have also chartered in the BVI, France, and New England. We sold our boat in April 2022. I like Find a Crew because it provides an opportunity to sail, meet new people, and enjoy the cruising life.

I'm really interested in traveling to new places and being a part of a crew so I can continue to hone my sailing skills and satisfy my travel bug. I am interested in joining on as crew for varying amounts of time.

I'm pretty active and enjoy hiking, sports, and generally being busy. I'm also happy to spend the day reading and working on the boat as needed. I love listening to music and particularly enjoy live music wherever I go. When getting off the boat I want to explore the area: hiking, beaches, shops and I always enjoy meeting locals. People are interesting wherever you go.

My schedule is flexible and I'm able to travel so please contact me if you think I'd be a good fit on your boat.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

I don't want to be 80 and think, "why didn't I go there when I had the chance?" So I'm going there while I have the chance.
