Greetings! I'm a retired full-time traveler currently traveling Southeast Asia. I discovered sailing when a group of friends invited me to sail the BVI back in 2008. Since then I've learned to sail on 420s at the Northwestern University sailing school, owned two boats (27' and 30'), obtained a USCG Maritime Captains license, bareboat Captained trips on a 46' catamaran in the BVI and ran my own charter company. Additionally, I've raced in numerous events on Chicago's lake Michigan as captain and crew on several vessels ranging from 30' - 38' in length. Sailing resume available upon request. | |
