Dear Shipmates
Introduction
A few years in the future I would like to buy my own boat to circumnavigate in and live onboard full time. At the present, I'm trying to build up miles and experience. Currently I'm paying the bills though online consulting, which affords me the opportunity to travel for several months at a time between contracts. For fun I like to explore the outdoors through hiking/cycling, and I also play music (I can bring my ukulele if you want). I have an interest in sustainable living. I would like to try crewing on a boat with an electric motor at least once. I don't mind taking our time and waiting patiently for ideal weather windows.
