About Me:

Big and Lovely ?!
Nothing 'lovely' about the size I am now, but that is mutable...

Seeking a Lady Skipper...
A Good Woman under 48 with an interest in acquiring a 60 foot mono Cutter outfitted with all the 'right stuff' (plus whatever we'll add to make her OURS), living the Sailing life for a few years (or longer)...
Chasing amazing Sunsets, waking up to Glorious Sunrises.
Dropping some weight on a fresh seafood diet, with plenty of fun exercise... (sailing, and maybe some hiking after the first 50 are gone)
LOTS of SCUBA Diving...
And raising a Family...

I am a Christian Believer, Singer/Actor, Worship Leader (NOT a thumper), but I believe Astrology has some merit (knowledge and wisdom) so with that being said, I am also a Gemini Fire Monkey (if you're into that). So... According to that a Libra Earth or Fire Dragon would be a likely Soulmate, but like I said - I see astrology as mostly 'suggestions' not concrete rules, and I'm sure I have soulmates out there that are not the above. After all is said and done - I believe that God is still in control.

I need to lose about 100 lbs (45kg) in order to be healthy again. I am 5'8" (172cm), and need to be around 200 lbs.
(yup, I'm built like a brick sh1thouse)

I figure there is no better way to accomplish that than 6 months to a year at Sea, harvesting food from the Ocean - wrestling the big ones onboard (luv Butter Broiled or BBQ'd Swordfish Steak, Abs/Crabs, Lobs, and looking forward to trying Sushi from a fresh catch Yellow), the extreme exercise of "sailing", maintaining/repairing, the exercise of recreating; SCUBA Diving, swimming, Kayaking, Wind-Surfing, Fishing, etc... and jogging on White Sand Beaches where there is no one around to laugh at or be grossed out by the fat guy jogging on the beach...
And most important of ALL, the motivation and TLC of a Good Woman - perhaps a Lady Skipper, to DO that all with...

If it doesn't kill me, it'll get me healthy again.
At this point - either way is fine,
prefer the latter.
But what an AWESOME way to go,
if the former !

Btw, I'd like to have a child (or two) in the process,
if that's still possible for me...

A recent California Forest Fire destroyed everything I owned and everything I had saved up over the last couple decades to realize this dream, so short of a Miracle from Above, what I am looking for some grease to get the wheels of this dream moving once again (in my lifetime), with someone that shares the dream, goals, desires, and whom the Sea is also calling...
Which in and of itself WOULD be a Miracle from Heaven.

My dream would be to have a 55-65ft Monohull Cutter Rigged CC Sloop under me and a good woman beside me. The Maple Leaf 56 that I've been watching for the last decade - just went off the market in 2020, so now I'm searching again. Not only for the right boat, but for a right woman as well.

I find there are many good women that desire a good faithful man in their life, and some of them may have this same dream, but very few are at a place in life to make an investment in such a good man AND a Sailing Yacht.

NOTE: Ideally, the just-right Lady for me would be from her early 30's (because that's where 'Earth Dragons' live), to her late 40's (because that's where Fire Dragons live), perhaps early 50's if she is still able to have a child, under 5'7" in heels, and a body that I can't resist (that goes to keeping me motivated - see above).

Sailing Experience:

Very Little...

Anxious to learn - have some minimal funds coming in about the middle of next year (2024, right around my BD), and I hope to go 'full speed ahead' with ASA-101/103/104 and whatever it takes to get a Capt Cert... And get all the docs in hand (passport, etc) to do some serious sailing for a few years.

Mainly Power Boating with Family in Detroit Lake and Prineville Res. in Oregon, from early teens to mid 20's. Have owned a couple power boats of my own, sold on the idea of going where the Wind chooses to take me...
The Sea is calling me !

Sailing Qualifications:

Army Job was Radio Operator
Licensed Ham and GMRS
Former Dispatcher and MobilePhone Op
(know how to communicate calmly under stress)
SCUBA Diver (PADI Open Water)
Electrical/Electronics tech
Mechanic (gas/diesel)
Done FG and machining work.
Looking forward to exploring my limits, and exercising my skills - especially of Solar, Wind, Hydro, and Fueled Power Generation technologies...
And although I don't enjoy it all the time, I DO know how to cook, so when we're on a watch sched, I can do my part in the galley.
How do you take your Coffee, Tea, HotChoc in the morning ?
