I have been sailing for over 40 yrs. and have worked in the marine/boating industry for almost as long. In between cruises I am fitting out/upgrading my Princess Ketch for more offshore work & exploring southern latitudes.
Destinations visited:
The Eastcoast, Med., Caribbean and Gulfcoast

Will be moving down to Safety Harbour (Tampa Bay) next year. Plan to retire and do some cruising following the sun. Have family in Safety Harbor and looking forward to my plans taking shape.

Greetings from the southern coast of Maine. Will be heading down the coast in September for warmer climates. No snow this Christmas! :-)
