Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I have had a love affair with boats, the ocean and everything to do with them for as long as I can remember and that passion has never diminished. I am looking for a like minded person who shares that passion.

I have lived on boats for many years now, my most recent a Discovery 55.
The boat is totally self sufficient it has all the creature comforts of a long term cruising boat, watermaker, washing machine, milk frother, which is just as well because.................................

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortablevery safevessel is survey certifiedvery spacioususually single handedvisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dream

I have owned boats in UK, Singapore and Australia and have sailed extensively in all 3 regions.
My sailing qualifications are from 'The School of Hard Knocks' of which I've had quite a few ( mainly to the head and small toes!)
Will be bobbing around the Ionian/ Cyclades for this summer July, August, September with a view to being back to Corfu early November.

What is expected of the crew

clean & tidycommittedeasy-goingenthusiasticfit & healthyfriendlyorganisedtrustworthyconfident swimmergood listenergood communicatortravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workpositive outlooksense of humorcan pay own expensesenjoy cookingdon't mind cleaningwill not bring a friendwill not bring a pet

.........................I much prefer the peace and tranquility of a secluded anchorage than the hustle and bustle of a town quay or marina, although apart from mountain biking I do love sitting at quayside cafes watching the world go by.
