Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Welcome Can can,
This can be a hard topic to find sometimes but I’m glad you found it. I’d love to hear your plans for reacquainting yourself with the sea . Cheers and Fairwinds

Yes, by all means let’s vet Can Can carefully to make sure she’s worthy of this all but dormant single sailors thread. 😂😂😂

Hi Glassdog, well I’m never too far away from the sea. Racing tonight and tomorrow night. As for forward plans, I used to co- own my own cruiser but my current situation sees me land Lubbing for some time. I’m now thinking about reaching out and making new friends.

Hi, you’ve caught me as I’m so gingerly dipping my toe in I haven’t said very much.☺️ I actively race (both dinghy and cruiser). My situation sees me landlocked for a while (other than racing) and I’m reaching out to make new friends and see where that takes me.

I love to cruise and snorkel from the boat. I follow Ocean races with keen interest (not for me though, I’m a born and bred crew but not qualified).

Hope this is enough.

CanCan (it’s a play on sailing round the cans and being better than CantCant) ��

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Just want to make it clear...
The "JB" stands for 'Jimmy Buffet', not 'Jim Beam'...
'Cuz Jim Beam says, "ahh hell, just run over the buoy..."

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Hi everyone, just introducing myself to the group. I'm a 63yo guy who's temporarily 'docked' outside of Phoenix Arizona but looking to purchase a liveaboard cruising sailboat within the year. I've had a few sailboats in the past 20 or so years. My first was a 22' O'Day on a lake in Wisconsin, followed by a 28.5 Hunter in Florida and lastly a 38' Seafarer Ketch. I spent a number of years in Fort Myers Beach and sailed up and down the Gulf Coast, making it to Key West a number of times. No bluewater sailing experience yet, but planning on remedying that.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Hi,

I am a single, fairly attractive, insightful fellow in the Pacific North West US who is looking for a life partner to experience the natural and cultural wonders that are allowed by a life aboard. I am strong and in good shape with a deeply rooted love of sailing.


Let's take some time to get to know each other and sail together.


Ideally, I envision our lives will inter-dependently connect as we rely on each other to manifest the wonders and discoveries in our lives. I would like a partner with similar aspirations and predilections as my own; a good communicator, well educated, and a strong commitment to the ecologies in which we live.

If you would like to explore possibilities and fit further, let’s!

I look forward to hearing from you,
Mark

Looks like you have fun and adventure! Tentative plans... well this week its how to reassemble the mast... lot's of parts and soon the rains will be here in Southern Oregon. Plans for getting it out for a sail are mid-Spring - either sail it down to Monterey area or up around Vancouver Island. It depends on boat reassembly rate, where home base will be, and who is interested and has time off. The Vancouver isl. trip is 3-4 weeks, which may be a bit much for most.


How about you, where do you hibernate in the Winter?

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

down here we hibernate in summer, but at present i am in temporary state or semi-perma-hibernation due to refitting boat...
yup we putting a wood mizzen mast back together after a patriciacane crack.
i prefer further south but am in mazatlan which can be considered the bottom /outflow of soc into pacific ocean, or beginning of pacific after soc.... depends on your viewpoint.
oh yes we have lovely pleasant winters. high season with tourists and everything. even tacos.. hahahahaha

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

I remember San Diego well, waiting for a freak southern storm to get us out of the doldrums and up to the Channel Islands. I was thinking that Yelapa Mexico (sp?) might be fun if the natives are friendly.
