Schoonerman,

Sounds like a dream come true! Would love to do it, think I can get away for that time.

Not sure what you need to know, but here''s some basics:
--49 yr old male, 6''3", good health, married, kid in college
--own and sail 20 ft gaff rig catboat, Mystic 20, in and around east end of Long Island, NY for past 3 seasons--have done Block Island and the Great South Bay from Amityville to Shinnecock single handed
--got the sailing bug during a week aboard a 60'' bugeye ketch
--heavy cigarette smoker, less so when I''m away from the phone and computer

Any offshore passages planned?

Regards,
Bruce Caldwell
