Decades of blue water experience on my own Valiant 40 and other power and sail boats.
5 years cruising San Diego, Panama Canal, Canada, Caribbean.
Many coastal deliveries along the US west coast, Baja, Mexico and Hawaii to San Pedro. Provisioning, main cook, regular watches.
Off shore racing: SoCal 300 x 2, Islands Race, Newport-Ensenada.
I do not get seasick. I am physically fit via open water swimming and weight training. Safety at Sea cert February 2025. I have complete offshore gear including personal AIS and PLB. I am fully insured with health, personal liability and annual travel insurance.
I have the time and means to do deliveries, without pay, because I very much like being at sea, especially out of sight of land!
I also race Beneteau 40.7 with Mike Dorgan, J/105 with John Bennett, Velos with Kjeld and Chuck Skewes. Express 37, J/22.
