Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Looking for time on the water, currently in Rockland/Rockport/Camden area. Day trips wonderful, Longer trips fantastic. Good listener, watch stander, team member, cook, able bodied, handy with tools, motors, electrics, solar, plumbing, IT/Software been up a mast or two, cleaning hull, prop, through hulls, etc. Recent experience 40' Valiant mono Abacos to Charleston, would have gone further but boat issues required attention on the hard. Also Benetau 379 Boston, Gloucester, south shore day trips great sailing. Have single handed up to 38' long while ago those were the days! Message or call, flexible timing.
