HI:
I am offering my assistance as a crew companion for any sailors who could use another hand in a sea
passage on any size sailboat.
I once owned a 36-foot
Columbia and sailed the
Great Lakes extensively. I was also involved in yacht deliveries in the
Caribbean. The past 20 years, I’ve lived in the Southwest and now feel the desire to return to the sea. I wish to spend up to a month sailing anywhere you desire.
I am in excellent physical condition. I recently climbed Mount
Washington in New Hampshire with my two sons on a lively two-day excursion that left both of them winded. I hike 10 miles daily and have crewed on vessels in Southwestern Connecticut regularly throughout the summer.
I enjoy people and am good-natured and accommodating. I have lots of experiences to share and am a vivid storyteller. In addition to my sailing experience and knowledge, I believe I can bring a lot to the table; a strong and healthy body and mind, and advanced degrees in chemistry and astrology that often provoke interesting and enlightening conversation. I contribute to, and thrive in an atmosphere that is both fun but challenging.
I am also a digital photographer and plan to document any trip creatively and vividly. My
work can be viewed at

I will pay my own expenses and can provide
references and recommendations upon request. John M
