I am a fit 60 year old, who has sailed regularly from early childhood on a variety of yachts up to 20m. Last year I sailed on a 8m yacht from Preveza to Athens via Corinth canal over 10 days as member of 2 man crew. I also sailed on two 50+ foot yachts from the UK to various western Atlantic destinations including Las Palmas. Recently sailed as volunteer crew on tall ship Pelican of London from Bristol to Dublin - awesome! Have sailed many times to channel islands and Scillies from Solent. Really enjoyed sailing on 42' First from Kinsale to Galway and cooking for 8 an man crew. Have strong sea stomach and enjoy cooking and provisioning for voyages. I have a passion for cooking a wide variety dishes and particularly like shopping in local markets and enjoy cooking fish caught aboard. Excellent helmsman who enjoys sailing in most weather and particularly enjoy night watches. Fun loving, team player who's now made his first Atlantic crossing as part of a 6 man, fun-loving crew.
