| I started sailing while attending university at Florida Tech in Melbourne, and have been hooked ever since. I’ve worked as an airline pilot for the past 15 years and finally getting to a point in life where I can start to devote more time. I am looking to gain blue water ocean sailing time to build up my sailing experience and continue learning and hope to one day be confident enough to sail around the world with my family on day. I have a good understanding of reading weather, technical systems, and navigation. I don't smoke, drink socially and consider myself easy going and go with the flow type of guy. Notes: Covid-19 Vaccinated. Will pay all travel expenses. Will contribute to all duties. | |
