Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I'm in Nepal now, in the Himalayan foothills. A few years ago I helped sail a 46 footer from Hawaii to Ketchikan, Alaska. It took us 23 days at sea. During the winter of '10-'11 I crewed on a 46' German sloop sailing from Phuket, Thailand to Sri Lanka to Salalah, Oman via Muscat. Recently I crewed from Maryland to the Azores on a Halberg-Rassy 46. In 2009–2010 I assisted in the delivery of a 60' carbon fiber sailboat across the Pacific from the Galapagos Islands to New Zealand. I'm in perfect health, don't smoke, don't mind washing dishes and am respectful of other cultures. I like to fish and sometimes get lucky. I have no religious nor political agendas. No excess baggage! I have a valid US passport and I'm free to consider any new blue-water adventures. Cheers, Randy

I enjoy spending time every year at sea. Long crossings don't bother me nor does sea-sickness. Ocean travel suits me very well. I'm competent, attentive, reliable, healthy and easy to get along. I have no religious nor political agendas. Usually I spend my winters in Asia. I'm seeking a circumnavigation but I am open to offers. Thanks.I prefer to be contacted via email.
