I am retired and looking for sailing adventures. I am in good physical shape and work out daily. I live in the US but am willing to travel to sail in other locations for the right opportunity. I am an advanced semi experienced sailor having sailed in lakes in MN where I grew up, sailed in California where I lived for 9 yrs and participated in day races and sailing in the Channel Islands on overnights. I moved to FL in 2011 and attained my ASA certifications for 101 Basic Keelboat, 103 Basic Coastal Cruising, 104 Bareboat Chartering . I crewed on a 37' CSY in the Regata del sol al sol in 2013 and 2014.. This race is a 500 nautical mile race from St Petersburg FL to Isle Mujeres MX. I sailed the boat back once to FL after the race. I sailed a 38' Island Packet from Titusville to Myrtle Beach SC . I sailed a 58' Bristol from Charleston to Baltimore in 2014. I have bare boated in the BVI's. I recently sailed in the Sea of California along the Mexican mainland and the Baja for three weeks twice in 2017..I have sailed many times in the Channel Islands on a chums 41' Nautor Swan. I am willing to help move boats from summer to winter locations and back along the eastern or western seaboards. I recently moved back to the central coast of California and am keen on sailing the west coast all the way to Alaska.
