About Me

I am currently an Artist -painter and powerboat (catamaran) designer and builder living in south Florida. I formerly raced offshore powerboats (mono-hull cigarette). I grew up sailing and came to rely more on powerboats as a diver. I am a USCG licensed Captain/ Master with experience in the Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea. I am a Diver-PADI dive master with underwater salvage experience in Florida diving Spanish galleons on Mel Fisher's east coast wreck sites. I have also dived everywhere I've Captained. I formerly constructed ,owned and operated Cable Television and telephone systems across the USA from college until the age of 30. I have always been an avid outdoor sports enthusiast including all alpine and marine activities having grown up in the eastern US and then Colorado's rocky mountains. At 30 I had the opportunity to pursue a new career on the water. I built on all of my previous experience and eventually founded a boat manufacturing company building my own designs. I am also a travel enthusiast, private pilot, and have aquired and developed many other skills as a result of the varied experience gained through business and travel. I am always looking for new projects to participate in with creative, energetic people wether they are artists, engineers, scientists, adventurers or entrepreneurs. Please feel free to contact me with any ideas you may have as I might be able to help in some way. Sincerely, Randy
