Well put Sway.

I've got to give Zeph props for having the cahones to stick around and take the abuse after his initial post. Most guys post something like that, and are never heard from again.

My suggestion would be that you place an ad for a sailor, much like Sway said, but you really don't need to include the tall dark and handsome description of yourself. It's not a dating service. You would do better to give a description of your qualifications to make such a trip. Anyone, especially a woman of narrow beam, should be more concerned about your ability to get them back on land in one piece than your GQ style. If you wish to weed out the men, then exchange descriptions of one another later, good for you.

You may also want to break the trip up into pre-planned legs. You may have better luck getting someone out for a few weeks than a few months or more. This way you'll have several chances at true love.
