Looking for: Caribbean; Mediterranean & Black Sea; Western Europe & North Atlantic Islands;
Experience: 300 ocean miles / 3500 coastal miles
I am sailing enthusiast. Having experience as a coastal skipper with some longer passages I feel it very clearly the time has come for true Bluewater Dream. I believe sailing is about meeting people in the middle of nowhere. And I'm ready to join a CREW with other friendly and easygoing people. „In privat” cardiologist, married (happily), three wonderfull kids (6, 9, 12) who are discoverind sailing since the age of 1,5 thanks to their father :). Completed sea survival training, LRC certificate, own safety gear. Late August I am scheduled for 2 week adventure on Norh Atlantic and Nort Sea to get some more blue water experience before Atlantic crossing.
