Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Bought my boat June 2024 and did plenty of refitting work. I´m retired and wanna use my time to sail. Currently my boat is sitting in Lisbon. The next step should be the mediteranien europe. In the last 8 years I sailed with over 30.000 sm as skipper ore watch leader - including a transatlantic trip from Canada to Irland, 4 month with a crew of 2 shipmate carribian islands and from balearic island to Dubrovnik. 2022 and 23 I sailed with my previous boat (HR382) from europe to Senegal, Gambia , Cap Verde, Azores and back. This trip to the greek island is a test of all equipment. End of 2025 I will start my circumnavigation. I'm yacht master Ocen comercial endorsed . Usually I do all mechanic work on my boat myself. Ready to go nearly any time with no preferences about the timeframe. I'm looking for a long-term partnership with a person who has a passion for life at sea and is capable of doing serious passages and willing to explore remote areas. I speak fluent English and German, a bit russian. I'm extremely interested in other cultures and languages and always looking to learn new things and have new adventures. I love to be with people and enjoy nature. I enjoy a healthy and active lifestyle, good food and I do not smoke.

I did a major upgrade of Equipment. Now she is equipped with a full integrated Raymarine system including radar and Axiom plotter, Electrical winches , hydraulic sails, water maker, generator, lifepo 800 Ah 24V system, Echomax system and for sure a certified liferaft is included as well. There are 6 deckvests but only 2 Spinlock with AIS. I recommend to bring your own Life Jacket.
What is expected of the crew

I have no final plan where to go and I´m willing include your ideas in my journey. I´m willing to cross the ocean towards American continent end of 2025. I intend to go with the flow and stay at nice places for a little while. This may include also renting a car to see some places.
