| I’m 61 years young, 3 successful children, 3 grandchildren, retired, have always had my own businesses including a bar and grill…so lots of management experience, working with personalities and teamwork, my oldest son retires Navy this year, my middle son played baseball for the USC Trojans before business degree, my youngest played basketball at Texas State University before transferring closer to our Phoenix home and finishing her accounting degree at Western New Mexico. I’ve had my own plane and the studying of sailing has brought me to some similarities and I’d love to be part of a team, learning sailing from you. Hopefully we can find a long friendship and we can be mutually beneficial in our objectives. | |
