Dear Shipmates

Introduction

My name is Kevin; an active, fit, adult male with a lot of experiences and skills to share. Navy Vet and a lot of travel experience.
Delivery on Boreal 52 from Annapolis MD to Nieupoort, Belgium; July, 4 - August 6 2024.
Nov. 2024; shorthanded Hanse 505 from Annapolis to Bermuda. Big seas and winds, and hand steering to safe harbor in Bermuda. Surely, an immense experience, yet very satisfying.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experiencevisit remote placesseek adventureface challengescareer changefinding myselfgain experiencelearn to saillive off the gridsustainable traveltravel

Navy veteran, plus much more. I have a lot to share. I enjoy travel, photography, cooking, guitar and geeking out on anything motorized, music, food, wine. But, I do especially enjoy sailing. I am Bareboat Charter Certified and IPC Certified. I'll be working towards my OUPV 6 Pack Captains license soon and would like to become a more competent and well rounded sailer/mariner. Looking forward to being on the water and eventually, deliveries and transports
