30+ years boating, mostly liveaboard, every boat teaches you something. I've learned to repair wood. fiberglass and steel, outboards, diesels and masts. I have over 10,000 blue water miles (mostly sailing) on numerous boats- schooners, ketches, yawls, sloops and cutters, marconi and gaff, and some powerboats too. I hold a Coast Guard license and know celestial navigation and marlinspike seamanship. I pay close attention to the weather and try to keep prepared for emergencies. As a boatowner, I have done many haulouts and I have witnessed thousands more (I work in a boatyard). I used to donate my time on Askme.com under the name "starshipenterprises".
