I`m looking for sailing the Mediterranean or participating ARC Rallies. My name is Jörg, I am 57 years old and have been sailing since I was 12 years old, starting on dinghies on the local lakes. Further my previous experience is reached in holiday cruises in the Mediterranean or carribean sea as a skipper or watchkeeper. I also like to explore different sea areas. I'm a non-smoker and a person who is friendly and respectful, physically fit. Of course I do all ongoing work on board, including watchkeeping. I am married and have 2 children (age 14 and 15). My professional background is business economist and banker, but I always take time for sailing. Otherwise, I live in Bavaria, close to Salzburg in Austria, and I`m reachable via phone +49 8666 2281990 or by email. I speak German and English. Fair winds and following seas Joerg Minkenberg
