Introduction
I have always dreamed of sailing but have lived in Wyoming or Idaho so not many options. My wife and I have traveled extensively and cruised on Cruise Ships a lot. We have booked several sailing excursions only to end up motoring. My wife and I are retired and can adjust our schedule to match the best opportunity. My hobby is building and have built two airplanes and working on an amphibious airplane. Have built a home from the ground up and am currently adding solar panels to our RV so we can spend winter months traveling the southern states. We would sure like to join a cruising boat where we could improve our sailing abilities because we love the islands. Variety is the spice of life so we would love to offer a stay at our home in Idaho with a tour of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks to show our appreciation for allowing us to stay at your sailboat and try sailing. Please e-mail me so we can start a dialog to see if this would work for all parties.

Jane, my wife of 44 years and I would like to do this together so we can learn to sail together and experience this together. She is a sweetheart, good cook, extremely patient to put up with me all these years. She is a little tentative so I would like her to have a wonderful experience.

Jane and I spent August in Greece with Leigh on White Cloud and it was a wonderful trip. Leigh was a thoughtful captain and friend. We do enjoy traveling and a sailboat is a wonderful way to explore islands.
