    I shall always be the embodiment of enthusiasm. The wonderful perception of consciousness alone drives me to learn and experience every day. The kids on the St Croix dubbed me "Spongebob"....always a lesson with a whole lot of whimsy! See you in the spring.

    I appreciate your enthusiasm! Work in the Minneapolis area and will email you. Can crew as needed on L. Minnetonka or regionally. Whenever we meet ask me about my favorite Uncle. Regards

    Blessed with a cabin up North; that's where they are. Working way too many hours in the meantime and telecommute over there when the ice melts :)

    I have a list of vessles sailed....somewhere; a little re-organization going on. S2-7.9 "Athena" #263 is slipped in Bayport MN. Looking for a good blue-water.....I have time to shop. Occupationally....metals. Special machines, tooling, fixtures, process analysis and repairables....very diverse manufacturing. Fairly strong background in other materials and processes. If a "term" was necessary...Manufacturing Engineer...no degrees or accolades. dirt under my nails and scars to prove! LOL! I have all my digits...knock on...
