Newly retired lifelong sailor (great lakes, SoCal, Bahamas, Virgin Islands) ready to return to the islands and beyond for easy cruising and adventures. Looking for a shipmate(s) to join in the trip to share new places, food and people. The only requisite destination is the exumas and after that open to alternatives.

I am planning on leaving the the first half of December, 2024 with an itinerary that includes the west coast of Florida (completed), the Keys and then the Bahamas in mid-March. We will have the occasional children, siblings and friends joining us throughout the spring with a planned return to Florida prior to hurricane season 2025. As a former triathlete, I enjoy swimming, snorkeling, fishing and am a certified diver. I have spent the past 40 years employed as a geologist, remediation specialist and project manager primarily in California raising great kids and spending my free time backpacking and fishing the Sierras, skiing and of course, sailing.
