Hi Brian,

I noticed your post and I am very interested in this trip from Florida to Puerto Rico.

Although I don't have my Captains License yet I do have recent offshore sailing from the BVI to the Turks and Caicos. In addition to several recent charters and a week long ASA 105 course that included overnight sailing.

I have a solid understanding of colregs, lights and sounds and just passed the ASA 105 exam which includes these.

* not looking for compensation.
* don't smoke or do drugs
* don't drink on passage
* hold a valid US Passpor
* don't have a criminal record
* looking to gain sea miles with a safe crew and vessel

I am a 48 year old engineer that has been boating since my youth but I just started sailing during the last four years. As an avid traveler I am looking for ways to gain more seatime since I plan on buying a Catamaran in 3 years once my last child goes to college.
