I'm from the US, adventurous, enthusiastic, capable, and experienced. I sailed 5 months earlier this year from Hiva Oa to New Zealand. I have my Bareboat skipper license from IYT. I am capable of weather routing, course planning, navigation, sail handling, night watches, maintenance and repair, and cooking. I am looking to build more experience on different boats while I continue to plan and save for my own boat in the near future.

Experienced expedition leader for summer and winter trips by foot (backpack), canoe, raft, packraft, jet boat, snowmachine, and motorcycle. Team player who understands how to work together and live in close quarters.
Professional ecologist/naturalist. Longtime hunter and fisherman.
Fit, honest, intelligent, with good energy. Reliable, hard working, and can take direction. Non-smoker and not a big drinker. Will eat almost anything from plain to exotic and be content.

I am looking to get more sailing and cruising experience. I love to learn and am looking for mentors who are willing to teach. Currently living in Panama.

I'm looking to build miles and experience. I'm considering buying my own boat and want to learn as much as I can.
