Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I am an experienced sailor and 201/203/204 ASA instructor. Just completed a delivery of a 56 ft monohull from Ventura to La Paz. Multiple night watches and some offshore experience. I have done many bareboat charters as skipper in the US, BVI and Croatia and as crew in French Polynesia. I typically sail out as skipper of Marina del Rey for bareboat charter day sails or weekend trips to Catalina. I just completed the USCG 25t Master with Sailing and Towing endorsement. I have worked as windsurf instructor in the past, and I have PADI open water diver certificate. As an electrical engineer, I am also quite good at fixing things.
