Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I'm a semi-retired software company founder who grew up racing small boats in the Midwest and then moved to sailing and racing bigger boats in the Caribbean and on the East Coast. I have done a couple of long offshore passages (trans-Atlantic, Hawaii-Vancouver) and am looking to cruise offshore again. Location is not too important, but would prefer exploring the Pacific. I'm in excellent health and ready to contribute in any way that I can! I have a window of about 6-7 weeks available to me in 2025 (flexible as to timing) and then a much larger availability in 2026
