Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi there,
I am looking for opportunities to spend more time on the water, mostly (but not exclusively) paid delivery gigs on the US West coast, down to Mexico, and back up, maybe East coats and Carib ?? I'm an architect by training, and GC, PM builder by trade, semi retired and transitioning to sailing /cruising next stage in my life. I am well-traveled, several fluent languages, and early-on adopted the attitude of being a Roman in Rome. Some military and technical background, definitely an adventurous streak. I am currently in the San Francisco Bay Area for a few of my own projects, but am looking for my next adventure Sailing and Travel. I have sailed and competed in San Francisco bay since 2013. With some Cabo MX to San Diego up wind delivery. One three week Pacific crossing Honolulu to Port Townsend / Seattle area delivery.
Maybe interested in a capable sweet sexy partner to sail the oceans and travel the world.
I am capable, easy going, humorous, good health, 'can-do', open-eye thinking folk. Please reach out and let me know of your needs and considerations and lets explore opportunities together.
Fair winds to you all
Carpe Diem , Best
