Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Ahoy captains! I am fresh off my day skippers and keen for mileage and experience. Keen for any passage or day sailing from anywhere around Mexico or the Caribbean currently. I don’t have a lot of miles yet but I’m a very competent operator.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans
