Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Queridos compañeros de barco, soy Francisco Ruiz , español con 66 años y mucha experiencia navegando, desde los veinte años ingrese en la Armada Española como Enfermero Militar, navegando en diferentes barcos y dando la vuelta al mundo en El Buque Escuela Juan Sebastián de Elcano, ahora ya jubilado de mi vida militar desearía navegar ya que me apasiona el mar. Soy enfermero con gran experiencia y mi carácter es serio y responsable. Puedo navegar en todo tipo de travesías y acepto tanto cocinar como contribuir en la limpieza y mantenimiento a bordo. Sin mas un cordial saludo-
