| Hi I am a experienced sailor with many NM on the record. I have primarily been sailing around Denmark, Sweden and Germany. I have just finished my Yacht Master certificate for Offshore sailing - I also have my VHF certificate. In Denmark, I have my own 38" monohaul. I am looking for a boat to cross the Atlantic or to go sailing in the Caribbean or South Pacific...departure time preferably in November -December 2019 - but I am flexible. Even though I have worked as a communication director for a global company I am very good with my hands...comes with having my own boat:-), so I can fix almost anything on board. I write and take a lot of photos...it is my ambition to write a book during my trip. Don't hesitate to reach out. Fair wind Frank | |
