I am a mature single male, financially independent, fit & in good health, who wishes to cruise the Adriatic Sea for 4-5 months in summer 2019 - on my 12.5m motor yacht with a younger female companion - under 45 years?
How do I find such an active, fit & fun person without sounding like a 'dirty old man'? Attitude is most important!
Living in close quarters like a boat, it is important to have similar values, high hygiene standards, to be considerate and reasonably tidy, without detracting from the excitement & enjoyment of such an unique & fun experience.
By the nature of the shared tasks of planning routes, anchor places, tying up at buoys or moorings, cleaning the boat, laundry and cooking - the person has to be fit & agile and enjoy water activities like snorkelling & swimming.
I am well educated & enjoy spending time in warm places & tropical islands.
No financial contribution is required & if the person is travelling during her college/university holidays - a modest monthly sum can be paid to meet her personal 'out of pocket' expenses.
So the question is: "How does one go about finding such an adventurous person, where & on what type of site?"
(I do not use FaceBook or similar social sites - as I am a private person & they seem to occupy too much time)
Would welcome comments and suggestions - especially from women who would consider such a venture.
Thanks for reading this thread.

4-5 months holiday?
You need someone who is a pensioner and have nothing to do...
Or a permanently jobless sponger...
Or a student, but then you will be a dirty old man for sure... dunno

The best way to avoid looking like a 'dirty old man' is to stop being one.
