Looking for sailing opportunities (recreational or racing)
Hi! - I'm a beginner sailor looking to eventually own a boat. I have a bunch of certificates now (ICC-IC, Yachtman, VHF-SRC-GMDSS) so looking to rack up some sea miles and fun hours.
In May, June, September and October months I am looking primarily along the Belgo-Dutch coast. In July and August I am likely to be interested mostly in Croatia or Greece but not refusing a plane trip for an interesting route.
About me: I'm a busy husband and father of two, freelance engineer, living in Belgium, frequent traveler to the UK where my current customer is located.
My 'big problem' is that I grew up on books of Jules Verne and Jack London, and family life of 20 years never converted me from being an explorer at heart. One of my objectives is thus to become competent enough to safely skipper a yacht for my family on upcoming summer holidays.
I enjoy kayaking, playing chess, listening to music and generally just being in the sun on a nice place, living the 'Italian life'.
As baseline assumption I am covering my own travel expenses and whatever 'variable costs' that arise from me being present on the boat. If your boat is not too far from Antwerp, I might also be available to help you will some maintenance activities. Happy to discuss..
