I left industrial and automotive mechanics after 30+ years due to accident. I'm now a certified computer repair/networking/security technician.
From 1987 until 1991 I owned the Columbia 22 Olde Blue, the toughest little boat on the East Coast! In 1991 I bought the cutter Jesse Boyce, the toughest boat
on the East Cost and currently a 5 time winner of division 4 of the Mayor's Cup.
I have lived aboard both my boats, year round in Gloucester from 1988 until 1998 and moved back aboard in 2005
I am a charter member of the Sea Shanty group, Three Sheets (to the Wind) and sing at The Cape Ann Brewing Company on Tuesday evenings.
I'm in the process of re-forming the 1990 Gloucester sea-music group Baggywrinkle with Captain Bedworthy.
