Hello, I am an able-bodied 65 year-old retired guy, who is in excellent health. I live in New Jersey, USA. New Jersey native. Rutgers University, 1991. Professional career was in biochemistry laboratory for a major pharmaceutical company. My sailing experience consists of two months cruising, from mid-Feb. to mid-April, in the Caribbean from Grenada to Saint Maartens in a Broadblue 42 catamaran. I was the crew and cook. Handled all sails. Did my watches. In May I joined the ARC Rally Europe in Tortola, BVI. Tortola to Bermuda to Azores to Portugal. I completed that voyage on June 14 as a member of six on a Dufour 455. Handled all sails. Did my watches. Cooked, cleaned. I seek a passage from wherever to wherever. I am prepared to get myself to and from most ports in the world and share daily expenses. I am tough and unflappable. | |
