Looking For Sailing Partner,

Please, if you can honestly say 'yes' to all of the following, then read on...

vegetarian/vegan
do not want more/any kids
non-materialistic
adventurous in the Italian 16th century sense of the word
comfortable in your own skin

Ever dream of escaping the grind and sailing off to the wilder places on this planet? Living small and responsibly with the whole world as your destination, on a solid cruising boat capable of taking you anywhere you want to go? Im building the boat, should be ready to sail in san diego in two years and depart in three. Id like to go with a partner. Im a capable sailor and although I could single hand it would be great to find a girl who could stand her own watch and share the adventure. VEGITARIAN, 35-45, at home on and in the water, with a strong desire to live a simple, authentic and adventurous life.

When we aren't sailing it would be great if you could ski the blacks, kick my butt in 8-ball or racquetball, finish the Saturday NYT puzzle in under an hour, teach me scuba or yoga or just love maintaining brightwork.

Im 6'3", 200lbs, fit for the activities I like, smarter than the average bear, honest, loyal, quick to laugh, grounded, vote with my dollars, prefer to be outdoors and havent played a video game since I was 15. I don't wear team jerseys, rarely carry my phone, and eat something out of my garden every day.

a few deal-breakers to help speed things along, in case you bypassed the opening line: face paint, carnivores, a closet full of shoes, texting, nail polish, true believers in any one faith, mindless consumption... and the Welch. (sideways winky face)

Nope, not implied - actually very clear. It's just that folks here are gonna respond to your expedition no matter what you imply. You're just gonna have to deal with that.

Re: Looking For Sailing Partner,

Well, I'm not a woman, but I text. I'm pretty sure all my consumption is deliberate, though. Unless, of course, you're talking about TB. That, I suppose, could be fairly mindless.

Re: Looking For Sailing Partner,

And for all you bikini babes who are broken hearted that your choices are deal breakers, let me buy you a steak. And some heels.

That covers a pretty wide spectrum if you consider the Borgia Family.
