| Hi, I have crossed the Atlantic from The Caribbean to the Azores with the ARC, West to East 2100 nautical miles and Gibraltar to Madeira and on to Gran Canaria 1000 nautical miles. I have owned 2 yachts sailed one in the UK and one in Spain. I have RYA Coastal Skipper, Practical and Theory, ICC, VSRC, and been sailing for the past 17 years, some in the UK. I have charted a few bare boats, Hunter 45 and a Jeannua 43 in the BVI and a Mahe 40 Cat in Martinique. I am a qualified diesel mechanic, also know my way around electrical systems. I can also cook an average meal and most importantly a sense of humor. Thank you Cameron | |
