Summary

I am an organized and dependable sailor. I have experience on ocean, coastal and lake racing and on many different sailboats from 15' to a 52'. I have also done several deliveries along the US and Mexican West Coast and am looking to expand my racing and deliveries to the East coast and beyond. I currently own and skipper a thistle, J24 and have just sold my 367 Beneteau.
