Dear Shipmates
Introduction
Hey! I have free time June 15-July 15, 2025, and I'd love to join as crew for an island hopping/coastal cruising adventure.
Sailing experience:
- Week-long charters with a skipper in Greece, Montenegro-Croatia, and the Canary Islands.
- ASA 101-114 in the Sea of Cortez.
- Bareboat week-long charters (no skipper) on 40 ft monos and cats: BVI, USVI, Martinique, and Catalina Island.
- 2-week sailing trip on a friend's 38ft cat from Zihuatanejo to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
- Day sails on ~30ft boats in San Francisco Bay.
- Frequent volunteering as a deckhand on a 100ft brigantine in the Bay.
In my land life I am an engineer and entrepreneur. Besides sailing I enjoy traveling, hiking, and playing music (guitar, mandolin, piano).
