Life Kind a funny how I got to where I am at this time (March 29, 2005) I am on a little island in the Exumas called Highbourne Cay. The Exumas are about 30 miles east of Nassau, Bahamas. I ran away from home so to speak in 1997 with my then girlfriend Sandy. We met a gentleman that owned a 100 foot motor yacht who asked us to work for him. We traveled the Caribbean for a year on his yacht "Joans Ark" with his family. Next we worked for Ted Roger of Cantel/AT&T fame. A very highly regarded Canadian billionaire on his 118 foot yacht "Loretta Anne" for the better part of a year cruising the Bahamas and the east coast of Mexico. Sadly Sandy and I parted ways after this job but are still best friends to this day. She is still on yacht and is chief stewardess on a 180 foot yacht called "Amour Azur" From there I relocated to Newport Rhode Island and joined a brand new 171 foot Feadship (the Rolls Royce of yachts) called "Solemates" for the owner of Reebok. Stayed with Mr. Fireman (real name) for 2 years traveling the Mediteranean and the Caribbean. I did meet my then Solemate Dione a beautiful Australian blond who I spent 3 years with. Dione and I went to southern England and I got my 200 ton captains liscence. I began working as a chief officer on 150 to 250 foot yachts all over the world. In May 2002 I received my 3000 ton captains liscence. I then lived and worked out of Antibes, France running yachts in the Cote D'azur. I have since bought and sold a yacht management company in Ft Lauderdale, lived in and traveled the east coast of Australia for 8 months in 2003 and most recently was the build chief officer for the 186 foot motor yacht Sycara III in Freemantle, Western Australia. Last year I took some time off and traveled south east Asia... I was in Kho Pi Pi exactly 1 year to the day the Tsun...Expand for more
