I have some time in my schedule while in Europe - Northern Europe, September through mid-October. If you have any delivery needs in that time, be in touch.
I have experience on offshore and coastal passages with 36’ - 60’ sailboats, monohulls and catamarans. Deliveries and shakedown cruises are what I love to do. I also enjoy re-commissioning and preparing sailing yachts for sailing after being on the hard. I have a couple seasons experience in the Caribbean managing, maintaining (fixing pumps, electric, engine maintenance, etc) and sailing solo to the owners desired destination.
I am generally handy, enjoy troubleshooting and tracking down system issues as well as maintenance and repairs. I am well versed on weather assessment, routing and navigation.
I don’t get seasick. I am an easy-going and enthusiastic person. I am in-shape and enjoy adventures and stories alike, a good book and just watching the water pass by.

Best sailing couple I have sailed with.
Both Joel and Mercedes were tremendous. They handle everything with professionalism and a smile. I hope to use them again.
