Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello, my wife and I love to sail. We are looking for opportunities to get open ocean experience, log miles, meet new people and see new places. I'm a healthy practicing physician and decent with all kinds of tools. We own a Hunter 29.5 and have bareboated catamarans. We are looking to purchase a catamaran in the next 3 years but want to get more sailing and live aboard experience. We recently spent 3 weeks sailing the Turkish through find a crew. I am a level IV captain and my wife is also a captain and competent crew member.

We like to sail any hull type. We are looking to meet new people share experiences and travel. We found bare boating to be very restrictive so looking to sail other ways.
