Hello I reside in Kentucky, but would like to build experience on sailing vessels, that's why I'm here!

I would like to be considered for a position on your sailing vessel for the following reasons:

I'm a highly motivated and goal oriented person.
I enjoy a challenging new experience.
I don't make promises I can't keep.
Experience and skill are very important, but a positive attitude and over all pleasant demeanor are invaluable!
I enjoy adventure, sitting on a couch experiencing life through a tv screen or monitor don't cut it for me.
I want to get out there and LIVE it!
I don't have much nautical experience, but I do have a fair amount of aeronautical experience.
I pursued aviation as a career, after college I started working as a flight instructor, crewed for a commuter airline, and currently I crew on a heavy aircraft for a major U.S airline.
A significant amount my flying career has been spent operating international routes.
US SAILING courses completed February 2016

Currently working on learning the Spanish Language

Due to my profession, I'm able to travel to and from boats with relative flexibility.
I hope that my words have created a representative picture of who I am, and how I think.
Please contact me if I can help answer anything.

I will have a lot of time off September and October. I would love to gain more experience crewing!

Thank you

My upbringing gave me an appreciation for travel, diverse cultures, and experiences.
Due to my father's career I lived in Europe, Africa, and The Middle East.
Above all I learned to cherish the adventures of travel, and discovery of new things.
As I grow older I realize more and more how every day is a gift, and I better not waste it.
I entertain my passion for sailing with my 23 ft trailer sailer in local lakes when wind is sufficient.
My small boat is a good experience builder, but I'd really like to learn to run a bigger boat on open water.
So I'm hopeful that findacrew can help facilitate me achieving my dream.

I would some day like to own and operate an ocean going sailing vessel. I see no better way to gain experience than crewing. My motivation is to learn skills rapidly, assist as much as possible, meet great people, and experience a pleasant passage.
