Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Greetings! I’ve been sailing for 15 years. Have my CYA Basic and Intermediate, Coastal Nav certifications, and Radio License. My wife and I are retired however she’s not interested in sailing. I belong to a sailing co-operative that shares 6 Catalina 27&30s around Vancouver BC and skipper week long cruises, however I’m looking for experience on larger sailboats or catamarans with one additional person or small groups.
