Dear Fellow Sailors,
I have quit the daily work grind and I'm sailing/living aboard full time. Like others on this site, I occasionally have need for crew. Immediate plans (6 months), work on boat projects with NC as my home base. Head south to Florida and the Bahamas for winter. After that, the Caribbean might be on the itinerary.
I wish everyone adventure and long life.
David
