Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi, I'm Jason. I'm looking to explore the possibilities of sailing and build some hours on the water. I'm new to the experience, but am motivated, eager, and learn quickly.

I am an experienced world traveler, and am used to traveling rather lightly and negotiating my way through new and strange environments. I have retired from my main profession, and would like to continue to travel but now over the water, while learning the ropes (literally). I am a quick learner, easy-going, and can get along in nearly any situation. My ideal scenario is to build towards blue-water passages, ultimately working towards an Atlantic passage in the next 2-3 years (~2025).

I am an insulin-dependent diabetic, and usually travel with a small 12v cooler to store medications. Otherwise I am in generally good health and am able to perform most tasks once demonstrated and explained.
