About me

Gender Male
Industry Maritime
Occupation Captain/Deckhand
Location Bay City, MI, United States
Introduction I am a 54 years old and have been happily married for 26 years, and am the father of 20 year old twins. I am a retired firefighter, now working as a Merchant Mariner as a Captain and Deckhand for Bay City Boat Lines, and as a Deckhand for Malcolm Marine.
Interests I am a follower and photographer of the lake freighters that carry cargos between the ports on the Great Lakes. My photos have been included in publications ranging from the annual "Know Your Ships" series of books, to public relations materials from Interlake Steamship Company and Canada Steamship Lines. The U.S. Coast Guard, the Lake Carriers Association, and the Marine Legal Review have also used my photography.
