Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I began sailing when I was 10 and have owned several sail and power boats. I am an easy-going and responsible semi-retired dentist. First boat I owned was a Lightning 19. I skippered my own Catalina 38 for 25 years and still race in the PHRF circuit. I have extensive racing experience and have many racing trophies as a result. I have lots of offshore experience in the Caribbean and Atlantic can handle most mechanical issues. I am very experienced at the helm and am excellent at sailtrim. I enjoy cooking onboard and just love being on the water. I am a non-smoker and am physically fit. Full sailing resume is available. I have my USCG 50 Ton Master's License, and open water scuba certificate.
