Looking to get some miles and experience under my belt before I go after a bluewater cruiser of my own.
Greetings ! My name is Matt and while I was in the U.S. Navy for 6 years, I have no experience on a sailboat . If you have an aircraft carrier handy then I've got you covered ...
Seriously though, I have been giving a lot of thought to following my dreams and seeing the world again but on a smaller scale and no time constraints. To further this goal , I'm looking into crewing on a vessel while I gain in experience and experiences. While I am a strong worker , I am in my late 40's. That's not meant to be a deterrent, but rather an admission that while I'm an eager student I may not be able to drop everything right this second. I do have current obligations that I would need to settle before I set out. With a little planning, I could be ready with a few weeks notice.
I would prefer opportunities along the East or Gulf coast.
I look forward to hearing from you , and wish you fair winds and following seas. Cheers!
