Re: Our Atlantic Crossing
Dear Jan,
After the initial euphoria of buying a new Outremer 45 in
France, I was a bit overwhelmed by how I would get her back to New York,
provision her, perform sea trials, and find a captain and crew, all while
meeting work and family commitments…until I hired you.
After calling your references who all spoke to your
unparalleled ocean crossing and catamaran experience, your wonderful nature and
integrity, I was very excited about the voyage.
I am very grateful to you for making a dream trip a
wonderful reality. You delivered on every promise, your word your bond. You
assembled a talented crew, passionate about sailing, easy going with “can-do”
attitudes.
You taught me so much on the trip about how to get and
interpret weather, catamaran sailing strategies, how to use the latest
technology, sail selection, engine and water maker maintenance, docking
techniques, chafing mitigation and what tools and equipment were best. Watching
your wonderful leadership skills as Captain, I will be calmer and more open
minded. Even though you’ve crossed the
ocean 36 times, you welcomed any question and suggestions. Your coaching raised
my confidence to another level.
I couldn’t be happier with my decision to hire you. It was
an honor to sail with you.
Sincerely,
Adam Friedlander
