Dear Shipmates

Introduction

The crew would be myself and my wife of 40 years. Although we have the age of experience, we have the exuberance of life. We are both very fit, active, travel extensively, have over 200 scuba dives each, regularly jog and play tennis and in general look and act 20 years younger than we are. Both fully vaccinated.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I am a retired US Navy commander with over 6 years at sea but not on any ship less than 300 feet long! My wife and I enjoy travelling having visited over 60 countries. She is a fabulous cook and we do not mind pitching in and helping with anything. We have gone on five one-week sailboat cruises in the last two years and are very comfortable with life on a small sailboat but prefer the comfort of a catamaran. We are retired and free to travel anywhere at any time but prefer the warmer climates. We are more than happy to pay our fair share of any expenses.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

share experienceshare charter costsvisit remote placesseek adventureface challengesgain experiencelearn to sailtravel

We enjoy the new and unexpected and thrive on adventure. We love the water and seek any opportunity to travel with new friends. We are considering buying a sailboat of our own but feel that we need more experience before making a commitment like that.
