United States Coast Guard licensed 100 Ton Master. Thirty years of professional experience on powerboats and yachts, as well as government and military vessels. My clients have taken me from the east coast of Florida to the Pacific, and from the Great Lakes south though the Caribbean and West Indies, working for yachts up to 371 feet. I have captained boats up to 90 feet from the Eastern Seaboard through the British Virgin Islands, with extensive sea time on long passages, charters and vessel relocations. I am well versed in meeting the needs of the finest owners and their representatives, in addition to being a thoroughly experienced technician that can handle any issue that may arise while underway. I take pride in the quality of my workmanship and ability to solve the difficult problems others cannot.
