Hello all,
I, as many others, have decided to go a power vessel and sell my very nice sail boat. I realized that I don't have a talent for fine sail trim, and the physical fitness needed for extensive single-handing of my Pacific Seacraft Crealock 37. Plus, my spousal unit is not very fond of sailing, particularly here on the windy San Francisco Bay (hence the single-handing).
I am in the early stages of buying a Kadey-Krogen 39, though it's not a done deal yet. The survey occurs in a couple of weeks.
I have been a longtime Cruisers Forum participant and a lurker here as well. I hope to learn and contribute in the years to come.
As I have recently retired from my long career and an air traffic controller, I am looking forward to exploring the inland passage ( B.C. ) and maybe the Sea of Cortez, too. For now, I just want to learn about what it means to own a trawler and become somewhat competent.
