About Me:
have been boating for over 20 years, at the age of 39, this is more than half of my life time. Starting out with a number of smaller power boats, then switching to sail about 8 years ago. I have sailed various boats from wind surfers, dinghies (lasers), keel boats from 26 to 40 foot yachts.

I live in are of Toronto Canada and sail mostly on Lake Ontario. I haves been racing yachts for the past 4 years, this year taking first place at the Port Credit Yacht Club’s Monday night races in both division A and B for racer/cruisers with my boat Black Diamond. I have also entered a few long distance races such as the Susan Hood, a 75 mile over night race and the Lake Ontario 300 the worlds longest fresh water race, a 308 knotical mile race around the perimeter of Lake Ontario. My crew and I on Black Diamond finished in 2008 at a time of 3 days and 8 hours, we were competing against the fastest PHRF Division, racing against a Canada Cup boat “Defiant” and some of the fastest yachts on the Great Lakes.

My hopes are to enter the offshore race in April of 2009, from Fort Lauderdale to Charleston, and possibly the Charleston race week series.

Blue water experience include yacht deliveries from the Abacos, Bahamas to Charleston South Carolina 2006. This delivery was a non-stop, 3 and half days, total of 500 miles. We crossed parts of the Bermuda Triangle, and during most of the delivery were over 200 miles offshore. Most recently the delivery of Black Diamond a 40 foot Jeanneau racer/cruiser has been delivered to New York City and then offshore to Florida and the Bahamas from Toronto, Canada. This delivery from NYC to Florida was completed 100 miles offshore, for a distance of over a 1000 miles non-stop to Jacksonville, Florida. Completed in what might be a cruisers record of 5 days 3 hours non-stop offshore. This fall my family and I added another 500 miles of sailing throughout much of the Bahamas. Spending 6 weeks aboard Black Diamond sailing the Abacos, Nassau and the Exumas.

I am also an Open Water Certified diver and an active member of the Canadian Power and Sail Squadron, certifications included Power/Sail boat handling, Seamanship Sail, Piloting/charting, GPS Navigation, Extended Offshore Cruising and a VHF Radio operation license. I hope to further my education, qualifications and experience in long distance cruising and racing.
