HI All, My name is Amir and my dream for my 50th birthday is to cross the Atlantics. I am currently working at Intel and managing about 40 people, I have about 7 years of sailing experience, I have an international skipper license. I master the sails and prefer sailing than motoring. I am very good at the navigation tools and I am a good cook. I never got sea sickness before. I am willing to share the boat expense and even more in order to achieve my dream. I have a lot of stories to tell you and a fun person to be around. I am looking for any vessel that crosses the Atlantic this Year around November December, from the Canaries to the Caribbean. Any help is more than Welcome! Any Share will help!
