Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Retired US Army helicopter and fixed wing pilot…divorced and looking forward to my next journey in life. Relaxed, easy to get along with personality…mechanically inclined, good with my hands and quick learner. Not afraid of new adventures and difficult circumstances as they arise.
New to lifestyle and interested in learning as much as possible in preparation to pursue life aboard my own boat in the near future. Recently completed coastal sail from Portland ME to Annapolis m, MD, approximately 2 weeks,(AUG 2024). 400 plus miles logged. Asa 101, 104 &114 training 2021. Continuing to look for longer leg experiences to help my development and knowledge.
Very clean, respectful, organized, helpful, healthy, cheerful, good company and willing to pitch in without being asked. I enjoy cooking, play a little guitar, hang out, read, and just enjoy the journey as time allows….would also like to share that im very mechanically inclined. I’ve completely rebuilt my 200hp Yamaha 2 stroke after it swallowed a cylinder…numerous old cars, and have a PHD in Youtube lol! I also have a pretty good understanding of electrical systems and not afraid to troubleshoot when required…
Willing to travel whenever, wherever, for as long as necessary….looking forward to this new journey…
