Introduction
Update March 3: currently boat and dog sitting the boat in which we frosted the Atlantic, while the owners are back in their home country. I should be available in a couple weeks. Meantime if you want to meet in Martinique I'm free to move the boat around.
Hello! Bonjour! John here in Martinique seeking friends and sailing I can be a very competent team member. Ideally I'm hoping to go north to the USA. But any almost any other option would be better :)
I have now maybe 7000 miles of sailing after two long passages. I'm probably still green for my miles, as offshore sailing is easy going. I know how to sail but not race, although would like to learn. I like taking on responsibilities that I can handle. I also like staying active and fixing things. From my perspective, haha, I feel I have always become a very important crew or team mate to the boats and sailing I've been apart of.
Ps i have been told i am bad at advertising myself, this was my attemp. But Feel free to ask for recommendations or any questions about my experience or passions! Hope to meet soon!
A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I love travel, i love the ocean, i like adventure, sports, learning, building and fixing things or other challenges. I also enjoy new meeting people. I am mechanical or handy, being brought up in a construction family and being my own car and motorcycle/motocross mechanic i can be helpful or fast to learn in many situations. I desire to continue learning as well. I like volunteering and giving back to communities, traditions and the planet, in the same way I also enjoy hard work, dirty jobs, motorcycles and adrenaline. I think I got a good balance between a hippie and a blue collar attitude haha. Let you be the judge!

My end goal Is to buy my own boat, since i dont have the Money for an ideal boat at the moment i would like to use my time to gather and absorb all the experiences, information knowledge, and lessons of anyone willing to share to increase me knowledge of vessels, rigs, oceans, seas, systems, basically anything and everything!
