Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Dear Shipmates:
I’m a confident experienced coastal cruiser with 3,000+ nm offshore experience seeking mile-building cruises with competent, friendly, safety-conscious sailors. I’m a 20+ year sailor, USCG 25T Master, I own my own boat and teach ASA courses on the Chesapeake Bay. I love being offshore on a sailboat and am excited about the chance to expand my experience. Rallies and races (Annapolis-Newport, Newport-Bermuda, ARC, etc.) are high on my list, and seasonal deliveries (NE to Florida, Florida north) appeal as well.
A little about myself, my interests and my plans
