Additional Information:

Hi. I started crewing nearly 50 years ago and have raced inshore and offshore on boats from 20 to 45 feet. I have not raced much in the past decade and am ready to get back into it after moving to the area a year ago.

Most of my racing was in Portland, Seattle, Vancouver, San Francisco and LA, and I have also raced in the Caribbean, Florida, Mexico and Europe.

I can manage any position but am probably a little rusty on the bow, having spent most of my racing time on steering, trimming, navigating and tactics.

My wife and I actively double hand our Jeanneau 36 on Puget Sound and in the San Juan Islands.

Additional Information:

Constantly raced dinghies for 5 years- as both skipper and crew, for both fleet and team racing events. Now I mostly crew aboard keelboats (usually on bow). I’ve just moved up here from Seattle and I’m still racing regularly on a few boats down there. I’ve been doing the South and Center Sound series’s this winter. I’m always looking to do more racing, so contact me if you’re looking for crew!
