Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi there, I am Paul. I was taught to sail by my father in the mid-1970s. We did a lot of dinghy racing and, later, cruising in his 23' cruiser. I bought my boat in 2018 and since 2020 have pretty much been sailing her full time. In the past two years I have logged over 10,000 nm. I am now part way through an open ended world cruise, perhaps a circumnavigation, I have no end date in mind.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortablevery safelive on little moneyshare experiencevisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamlive off the grid

I'm seeking an easy going, friendly, adventurous and uninhibited female companion, preferably long-term/permanent. For 2025 we'll be cruising the Eastern Caribbean, visiting many islands and staying at each as long as we like. The final call will be Grenada for the hurricane season.

Longer term, I have plans to visit Central America, the south Pacific, Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia.

So, If you like piña coladas, getting' caught in the rain and the feel of the ocean and the taste of champagne, if you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape, you're the lady I've looked for come with me and escape!

What is expected of the crew

clean & tidyeasy-goingfit & healthyfriendlytrustworthytravel light (little luggage)eager to learn & workpositive outlookcan pay own expenses

I have sailed countless miles single handed so, while some experience would be great, I have no objection to taking a complete novice. If you have qualifications that's fine but it's certainly not a requirement.
