Since commercial sailing on Maine Schooners in 2001, I’ve developed an ever-expanding knowledge base from commercial Sailing Catamarans on Maui to Puget Sound Yachts. No boat too pristine, no boat too modest. I take pride in seeing the minutia, upholding safety standards, and delivering a timely report anywhere in the PNW & Hawaii.
