Hi,
My name is Lycia. I'm 38 and live in
New Orleans. I have a
small boat of my own a
Pearson Ariel 26, however, I am a new
skipper.
I have sailed, as first mate, a 23' Glander from
New Orleans all over the
Mississippi Sound,
Gulf Coast and to
Guatemala and back. My skipper was a little over protective of me and so I don't have all the experience in the world but I have courage, smarts and the ability to learn quick. I have been through tropical waves and crazy Gulf coastal storms. I'm a great navigator and wonderful at
ssb weather fax. I would love to be a fully competent
captain one day and to do that I need a chance to learn from experienced sailors and a chance to test my skills. I have taken several
ASA courses in the past and passed with 100%. Not that that matters.
I am fun and lively. I always see the positive in every situation...which as any seafaring person knows is important. I also own and manage 3 small businesses in New Orleans, so I am responsible and dedicated.
If you would like to know more or could share more about what you are looking for you can reach me at

I would also like to know more about you as a skipper – your personality and experience.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Lycia
