I just finished refurbishing my sailboat to start my sailing venture to Cuba and the Carribean, this is a one year sailing expedition to explore as many islands time and weather allows. I just completed sailing the east coast of the US and Mexico and now getting ready for my Cuba and Carribean sailing venture.

As a cruising capt, I am in good health, and I prefer my selected crew to be fit and healthy, also adventure seeker,hiker, water sports, and good company, because this trip will cover lot of territory and activities mentioned above will make this trip worthwhile. I prefer the selected crew to stay long term on the sailboat potentially the whole trip.
