Newly retired lifelong sailor (great lakes, SoCal, Bahamas, Virgin Islands) ready to return to the islands and beyond for easy cruising and adventures. Looking for a shipmate(s) to join in the trip to share new places, food and people. The only requisite destination is the exumas and after that open to alternatives.

I am planning on leaving the the first half of December, 2024 with an itinerary that includes the west coast of Florida, the Keys and then the Bahamas. We will have the occasional children, siblings and friends joining us throughout the spring with a planned return to Florida prior to hurricane season 2025. As a former triathlete, I enjoy swimming, snorkeling, fishing and am a certified diver. I have spent the past 40 years employed as a geologist, remediation specialist and project manager primarily in California raising great kids and spending my free time backpacking and fishing the Sierras, skiing and of course, sailing.
