Profile Information

Profile Type:: Sailor

Homeport:: Chicago, IL

About Me:: I am a greenhorn when it comes to Sailing but have been relishing all I can get my hands on to learn more about it! I plan on taking some sailing lessons next year with a sailing school here in Chicago. Right now i am finishing up building a small 8' Sailing Dinghy that I can practice in. Buying up and reading a lot of used Books of varying topics related to Sailing, Cruising, etc.

Current location:: On land :(

Destinations visited:: Mississippi River on a Houseboat. Lake Ouachita in Arkansas on something called a, "Camp - Float". They roll your Camper onto a special Pontoon Boat then strap it down. The Company unfortunately is no longer in Business. Lake Mead, Lake Michigan. Numerous Lakes & Rivers in IL, WI, and elsewhere.

Looking to:: Build or buy a used fixer upper Cruiser so I can explore Lake Michigan and later on the Bahamas and possibly elsewhere. Taking Sailing lessons this spring with some dryland courses this winter.

Sailing - Christopher Cross
