Sailing, Music, Driving

Since my early days I have loved the water, swimming, scuba diving, simple enjoyment of the beach.  Sailing became a passion in my early teens and I have pursued this activity throughout my career when time has allowed.  I have sailed competitively and cruised single handed. Being out on the water is relaxing and rewarding.   As for music, it is the elixir that satisfies the soul.  Virtually any style and genre will provide a release from stress.  Driving is simple, I love cars, open roads, and spirited driving in an open top, quality sports car.
