About Me:

I'm looking to meet someone who shares a dream of owning a boat, sailing on her as much as possible and even living aboard partly or fully. I have a sense of adventure, so am open to the idea of bold plans and big challenges.

My friends say I'm a kind person, smart and caring. I have a curiosity for new ideas and information, so I love to read, watch and experience things.

I have a typical British sarcasm ;-) and value trust, understanding, intelligence and humour in other people.

I'm a bit of a nerd, so like to dive into topics to find out more - plus that nerdiness bleeds into my love for science fiction.

Religion hasn't ever been a part of my life, I prefer to reference morality and ethics as a guide to living well. I respect everyone for who they are, regardless of belief system.

Definitely on the introverted side of the spectrum, but in no way extreme - I love to talk to people, but less so in big crowds or busy places. I feel much more comfortable talking one-on-one with people.

I believe it's important to have a strong connection emotionally to a partner, and give the respect and freedom that person deserves to achieve their own goals too. A partnership should be fair and balanced.

I'd love to hear from you if you think my characteristics fit with your view of the world!

Sailing Experience:

I used to sail for years when I was a teenager. My family had a 23ft (7m) Snapdragon. It was tiny for 4 people, but we managed :D

We had a mooring in Swansea, South Wales. Our holidays consisted of trips across the Bristol Channel, down the Cornish coast and sometimes as far as the Scilly Isles. Based on being around the boat many weekends and during those weeks on holiday, I have a lot of passed-on knowledge from my father. When my parents moved to the Isle of Wight, I was in my early twenties and had other things to focus on (like work and being a dad).

Since then I haven't sailed much, but now as I move into my 30's, the ocean calls to me and I have a strong desire to make it happen again.

Sailing Qualifications:

I'm only qualified to Dinghy Sailing Level 3, but have the knowledge and experience to be Competent Crew level at least.

The aim is to use this next year to get my Competent Crew and Day Skipper certifications.
