- Biography
- Took to sailing later in life...55 years old. Not very good at it yet and still learning. Part owner of a 51 foot Beneteau for 3 years with 3 wonderful sailors from the Ft Worth Yacht Club. We sailed BVI for a season and BVI to Grenada circuit twice now. May 2017 I purchased a 42 foot Catamaran to have a nicer boat and so that I did not have to depend on the schedules of others. This will be my second season on my 42-foot Lagoon. During 2017/2018 I sailed her from Norfolk, Va to Bequia and back to Norfolk. She is now in the yard at Cape Charles having some work done after some 6,000 miles of sailing this past season. This year's sailing plan is to leave Norfolk in mid-October to make way for Key West and the 2018 Fantasy Fest. From there we sail to Belize for the purpose of staying a couple of months. In February we sail to the Bahamas and may go as far as Anagada, BVI. WE will be back in Norfolk by mid-May. When I purchased this boat a year and a half ago I was engaged and the plan was that she would sail with me. That did not work out and do not want to spend another season single-handing. I am no longer engaged but found that I truly enjoy sailing, day or night and want a good companion to sail with that can physically assist me with sailing, maintenance, docking, keeping things clean and preparing meals.
