Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I'm keen to gain more experience sailing and crew and explore the mediterranean about smaller sailing yachts with friendly crew/owners, long-term to buy a boat in Croatia / Greece and charter it for a few years. Happy to assist with deliveries at no charge. I'm bachelor with no dependents. I have my Day Skipper through SAS and >3000NM experience. Still useless at tying knots. I'm fit strong healthy and resilient and eager. My longest voyage was 10 days up the coast of Mozambique, sensational.
