About Me:
I purchased ROMA, a 1974 29' Seafarer, from a former sailing buddy in 2000. I was looking for a solid boat in the 30' range with good blue-water and cruising credentials. ROMA is a left-over relic from the era when boat builders were discovering how to manufacture boats using fiberglass.

She has a great pedigree being designed by McCurdy/Rhodes and very traditional lines. ROMA sails extremely well and the swing keel configuration works well for shoal draft sailing.

The Coastal Georgia waters are notoriously shallow sand or mud bottom. There's not a question of "if" you're going to run aground, but only when.

In addition to ROMA, I've also crewed on other boats including BLU, a 48' Racing Beneteau, two America's Cup Challenge Yachts - Australia 29 and Canada II, as well as numerous other smaller boats. I've never missed an opportunity to gain sailing experience.
Current location:
Brunswick, GA
Looking to:
Cruise extensively after retirement
