Hello to the community

Hello, Just joined and glad to be part of the community.

I am a lifetime mariner but fairly new to sailing. Bought my first sailboat in 2007 and just recently bought my 2nd a Catalina 350 hull # 351.

I am a USCG 50T Near Coastal Captain and love boats and the water.

I am particularily found of cruising the BVI's where I have chartered and worked as a captain on many occasions.

Sail on my friends !
Capt Lulu

Re: Hello to the community

Welcome to CF Capt Lulu. I have my USCG Unlimited Tonnage Open Ocean and was a graduate of CMA. Did break bulk, container, and offshore drilling ships (rigs). My last vessel I served on................


At 32,000 tons with (6) 5,000 hp electric thrusters.

My "office"


And yours truly.....


You will feel right at home here on CF, I think maybe 10% of us come from the maritime industry.

Aloha and welcome aboard!
Good to have you here. Retired Navy here. I guess that's part of the military industrial complex.
