female sailor looking for female sailing buddy

Ok, so I find that I just cannot pull the boat-buying trigger on my own: deer in the headlights.

The problem is that I need a partner, a sailing partner.

However, I want this partner to be female (like me).

This is someone who loves sailing, adventure, is experienced (a must), easy-going, can hold her own financially, (to help out with some of the ongoing costs: fuel, food, marina fees). You get your own cabin. Flexible timelines, and on a we'll-see-how-it-goes basis.

So, if you are female (you can be gay, bi or whatever, no prob, just know that I'm not into women) and a seasoned sailor and want to buddy up so to live this life as a team, please send me a private message.

thanks!


wolfie

P.s.: guys, please don't take offence. rather, please cheer me on, as it would mean that there are two more female sailors on the water

^^^^

Well, here is one bloke who is indeed cheering ya on! Hope it works out for you. Companionship without intimacy at sea can be a great thing no matter what sexual identification is in play.

Re: female sailor looking for female sailing buddy

Thanks Jim! And I'm glad to hear from you! It has been such a while since I've been around... And yes, hopefully there is someone else like me out there who wants this more than anything else. Sending a big kiss to you and Ann!

Hey, Wot! Thanks to you too for your support!

Fingers crossed!

No offense taken! Quite the opposite. May you find a sailing partner and ply the waters on “your own boat!”

Just FYI...My wife follows Women Who Sail via their Facebook group but they also have a website in case you are interested.

If you look at Latitude 38 crew list there are women all over on the list not just the SF Bay area.
