Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi! Looking to crew anyplace fun and interesting. Love sailing, diving, nature, seafood, wine and good times, etc., etc.. I grew up sailing and finally have time to return to it. Just retired from practicing law as a corporate executive, licensed pilot (both sea and land), former aircraft aircrew and mechanic, experienced cook and world traveler.
