Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Wow! Just jumped in and bought a boat. Anyone who dreams of having a boat someday, well tune in, help out, see what it's like.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

live on little moneyshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamfind a soulmate/partnerlive off the grid

The boat is in process of refit, docked in San Francisco bay. In the near term it will sail day trips in the bay. I am looking for local crew interested in day sailing and short trips. I am learning to sail. Experienced crew as well as enthusiastic learners are welcome. Those wishing to own boat some day are welcome to become involved in the project to refit and upgrade an older vessel to ocean sailing condition. When I'm ready, I want to sail her to her new home port of Nanaimo, the maybe Alaska, Mexico, South Pacific, Thailand, the Caribbean and wherever my hearts desire points.
