Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am a reasonable,reliable person with30 years of sailing experience, 10 years as skipper of a 33ft monohull in the Eastern Sea.
Contributing to a good atmosphere on board I'm willing to contribute my know how, my skills as well as my empathy.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I work as a self-employed carpenter, that is why I'm used to take responsibility for my actions. I love to be on a boat with all its density in a physical and social aspect and all the width of the horizon. I'm interested in music, people and their different approaches in life. My plan is to gain some blue water experience, for I will hopefully end up on a boat for myself as soon as my kids don't need to much attention anymore
