| Description: |
I live in New England CT I am in the need to learning the art of sailing and gaining sea time. I and 41 years old physically fit with a great attitude and the willingness to learn and I am working to get my 100 ton captions license. I spent 9 years in the US Navy on three different ships but no time with sailing vessels. I also attended school for tidewater in the Gulf of Mexico on oil ridge supply boats. So I do have experience in watch standing, steering the boats, sea survival, marlinspike seamanship and more life at sea skills. Please consider me for a position as a crew member I would love the opportunity to sail with you. Thank you |
