- Profile Type:
- Sailor
- Homeport:
- Fort Myers Beach, Florida
- About Me:
- I am the son of a sailor from New York.and I have settled here in South West Florida. It is a nice home base for me, not too far from the Caribbean. I have a small boat maintenance business here and I play with a wonderful band on the beach a few nights a week. Life is simple.
My vessel is a Heritage West Indies 36 and now it is time to plan my next cruise. Any suggestions??? :)
- Destinations visited:
- My most adventurous sail was my voyage from Grand Bahama to Tortola BVI, non stop six days and nights. We had a cold front stall on us the forth day out. 15' and 35 mph for 40 hours. We left with a nice weather window but they do not last forever.
Other destinations visited are The Long Island sound,Block Island, The Cheasapeke bay, Norfolk, Bahamas and the Florida Keys.
- Looking to:
- Make friends and maybe more.
