I've been on the water all my life. I served 22 years in the USCG as a Chief Bos'ns Mate. I've owned and sailed boats on the Chesapeake Bay and south to Florida and the Bahamas for 40 years. I believe in low stress sailing.

Boat descriptionSV TITAN is double ended and cutter rigged. She draws 6.4' and has a 13' beam. She's heavy at 18 tons but a comfortable ride in all but the worst weather. She carries 150 gallons of fresh water and 80 gallons of fuel. She carries most modern electronics to include: chart plotter (2), anemometer, Apparent wind indicator, knot log, fathometer, AIS (transmit & receive). She is outfitted with most safety equipment with the exception of a life raft. I avoid the AICW, preferring to sail off shore. I generally wait for a favorable weather window before heading off shore. If possible, I use the engine if boat speed drops below 4 knots.
