Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hey there - my name is Matthias, I'm 42 yo and I would like to go sailing. I'm currently based in Palermo. If you guys will be in the Meds in November, ideally in Sicily, and are looking for a decent and clean guy, please drop me a line. I'd like to gain more experience in sailing and appreciate any help. I'm interested in a boat myself. Happy to answer any questions you might have. Thanks a lot! Ahoy, Matthias.

I'm swimming since the age of three and like almost all kinds of water sports, surfing, paddling with my surf ski, diving, etc. Me living on a boat some day is just logic, haha. I love to hang out with friends and family and travelling. Was living in Germany, Australia and Spain before. Happy to bring and share my surf ski (but no need to).
