Long term: I am open to planning 2-4 month legs annually, open to many start and end destinations. if you are planning a journey and need an extra hand, DM me and maybe I can arrange to be free.
Short term (2024): I have October-end of November open, looking to sail and end up close to Columbo, Sri Lanka. For example, Bangkok,
Thailand, or Cairo,
Egypt would be close enough, though Sri Lanka or
India would be ideal.
I would be flying to join from
California, and also open to starting in
California or nearby.
My experience: I've owned smaller 25'-28' sailing vessels and currently live on my 27'
Catalina, though I haven't taken her out in years d/t
living aboard. I sailed from
Thailand to
Egypt in 2007 with two different yachts 36'-38', the first we were two handed, the second we were three. I'm no expert, but I know the basics and do alright. Held solo watch, hours of darkness, round the clock shifts of 4 hours for a month, I don't sleep on my watch.
Former
chef, firefighter, EMT,
current Registered Nurse (travel nurse) and PADI
Rescue Diver. I enjoy the company of others and am told I am interesting and fun to be around. I am very
safety conscious. I drink alcohol but no interest in doing so while operating a vessel or being on a vessel operated by others under the influence. Drinks at
anchor or in port is fine.
