I enjoy the yachting life, being on the water. I’m energetic with a positive attitude. Currently most interested to week-day or weekend sail in the south coast of England & 1 to 4 weeks or more abroad at any destination easy to drive, ferry or fly to from the UK.

I am finding my way to follow my dream of sailing throughout my retirement years, building on my sailing experiences & capabilities. I started using find-a-crew in summer 2023 & enjoy getting out on the water regularly. Sept 2024 saw me crew & holiday for 5 weeks from Morlaix, France to Sada, Spain crossing the Bay of Biscay on a family owned 23m Yacht.

On land I spend most of my time in England & France. I frequently visit family near Montreal, Canada. I have 2 independent adult children, one living in Zurich & the other in London. My home is in the south east of England (near Gatwick Airport) & from there I’ve enjoyed sailing the Solent, Scilly Isles, Channel Islands, up England’s east coast to Scotland, North Sea to Kiel Canal, Brittany & Normandy. I sailed on holiday in the Bahamas & Greece. I’d love to sail along the Mediterranean, Scandinavian & Baltic coasts. Would be happy to explore new destinations. I’m young at heart, drama free, perceptive, self motivating & easy going.

My goal is to broaden my sailing experience & horizons. Using find-a-crew as a means of travelling too. Pleasure cruising is for me, soaking in different cultures, being among likeminded sailing enthusiasts & absorbing all I can from others to better my sailing skills.

I’m a happy person looking forward in joining other crew & being among likeminded people developing my crew skills & the intuitiveness needed. Sailing is a passion of mine & I have a wealth of crew experience. I’m a good watch keeper & helpful with the lines, mooring & helping in the galley. I’m conscience of the importance of a tidy boat. For now, I’d like to further my skills by experience, in my own time, while enjoying being on the water in good company.

I have crew & living on board/sailing life experience as co-owned a 36ft Bavaria for 15 years (The Solent, first based at Chichester marina & then Hasler marina). All together, have sailed with family & friends for over 40 years. I’m intuitive, self motivated with a kind & positive spirit.
