Want to learn-

Hey all,
I'm new to forums, but just poking around here I can tell there is an amazing amount of info available and I hope to learn lots.

Long time sailor, used to race buoys and offshore for other people. Now I'm very much owned by a Catalina 30. I have long term coastal cruising dreams for this boat and offshore cruising dreams for another (preferably aluminum) boat.

My main objective is to continue to learn how to be a SAFE and smart sailor and a competent boat owner. Currently in flight school for the U.S. Coast Guard hoping to be a rescue pilot someday.

Welcome aboard Hunter. I must warn you though, that name will generate a lot of jokes among the Hunter critics.
