Set For Sail

“You can never discover a new land without first losing sight of the shore.”

Ever since I can remember I have had this passion for sailing, and it’s been such a pleasure living by the ocean. The issue now is that I haven’t been sailing in a while. I've been so busy with family and work that it’s been tough to find time to go out. I don’t have a sailboat so that’s one obstacle I have to overcome as well. Also, I’m not an expert so I would like to go out with others who are experienced and learn from them.

For now, I am looking for an adventure! I’m looking for an opportunity to join a crew for a week and sail around. Whether it be to transport boats from place to place or just an excursion with others, I’m very willing to volunteer a week of my time to go learn from the best. I would really like to stay in the waters surrounding Florida, so maybe a trip to the Bahamas or the Caribbean. I’m flexible but it depends on the needs of the job.

For those who are searching for crew members, I swear I am an able-bodied citizen and very easy to get along with. I know you are probably looking for people who are tolerable since you will be spending quite some time with your crew and will be sharing close quarters. I am very reliable and a good community-focused individual. I’m a family man and I’m just looking for a fun way to relieve stress and get back on the water. I may not be the best sailor but I take constructive criticism well and I’m very much looking forward to learning in the open seas.

So if anyone knows of a captain looking for a crew member, feel free to refer him or her to me! I would jump at the opportunity to sail again.
