monet63 Posted March 18 Share #1 Posted March 18 Hi everyone. After a rather long period of reading, I decided to sign up and introduce myself. My name is Mimmo, I'm 60 years old, I'm a retired Italian Navy veteran. I've sailed a lot in my life; now, that I don't anymore, I sail with my imagination and models. I find the diversity of people on this forum absolutely wonderful: a huge worldwide community. A big greeting to everyone and, as they say where I come from: "buon vento!".
