Looking for a Competent Crew position

An old river rat whose first job was on a converted Ohio River towboat into a restaurant with a boss whose parents were slaves. He went on to become a rigger on a river salvage operation. His father introduced the family to houseboats and they navigated up and down the Ohio at least three times. Later helping him sailed his Morgan 36' from Miami to Lake Erie. Years later while living for twenty years in NYC, he sailed out of East Hampton culminating with helping the captain sail his refurbished 1980 Pearson 36' to Baltimore, Ireland. Soon afterward sailed across the Atlantic three times with Captain Eric Forsyth on his Fiona. In 2019 he sailed again with Captain Eric on his yearly Maine cruise in September. October 2023 back from a 4.744 nautical mile voyage from Lake Erie to the border of Russia in a 32' Bayfield. It took 5 months. Tom's fifth crossing, first as captain.

Upcoming voyages on a 32 Bayfield:
2024 July to August: Finland to Falmouth 1330nm
2025 June to July: Falmouth, Azores, Lake Erie 3718nm
