Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I have been exploring options again, saving and getting fit. Single gay 57 open, friendly aware, sense of humour, etc.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

Hello, I am a 57 yo single gay male who has a passion for travel. I live in the Old Port of Montreal and have some limited experience aboard a 200’ schooner, part of a crew of 25, sailing the St.Lawrence Seaway & Lake Ontario between Quebec Cité & Toronto.
Also flew once to Panama accepting the invitation of the Captain of the schooner to spend some time on his catamaran, à great break/change from a freezing winter.
I am a personable guy and get along well with most people. I’m well traveled:North America, Australia as well as Europe. Although I only speak English, I have not had any problems communicating with people on my travels.
I'm also a bit of an artist and photographer. Fairly computer literate.

My motivation and reasons to crew on a boat

have a holidayshare experienceseek adventurefinding myselfgain experiencelearn to sailtravel

My experiences aboard a tall ship on the St Lawrence and Lake Ontario and with the Captain(s), his family and the crew has made me want to experience more of the ship life. I also have a real passion to see more of the world and to learn more about sailing and shipping. Although I'm a novice, I have a passion to travel, I learn quickly and I can communicate effectively.
