I am
a retired 100 GT Great Lakes & Inland Waters Master for both Sail and Power vessels
and proudly carry a US passport valid through Nov. 2020.
I have captained vessels up to 81' and 75 gross tons upon the
Great Lakes and Inland Waters of the US.
With over 40yrs of experience on the water, I have given
many folk smooth, safe rides and enjoyable times. As a man who
is very knowledgeable about many makes and styles of
boats (both sail & power), seamanship, marlinspike, the
marine environment, navigation and so much more, plays an
integral part in my daily life. I own
and sail a 1968 pre-Bristol 24, a true classic, a Sailstar Corsair named
"Vireo".
Be it a delivery of a boat to another port and region or
consultation of a marine matter, I am ready to provide my
professional expertise and comprehensive training to satisfy
anyones nautical requirements.
As a skilled boat handler, crew leader and trained radar
technician, I have served as a USAF
Meteorologist, tour & sail charter boat Captain, teacher, small
businessman, singer/songwriter - acoustic musician, as well
as a manager of many other challenging endeavors.

All my life I have lead through example. Using my
skills and extensive experience, I exhibit myself as a role
model for young people. By leading many team concept
workshops myself and applying those concepts in daily life,
business and sailing, I have created well honed crews in
every venture
undertaken.
Having sailed for years, I have acquired the innate
ability to feel vessel movement of all sizes and shapes, both sail & power. I love being aboard and at sea!
“Having known Capt. Tim for over 30 years, he sure has a great feel
for boat handling. He‘s a natural.”
Captain T. G. Fennell
I know that being at sea during trying, stormy weather conditions and
emergency situations is not
enjoyable. From those times I have learned to remain both
calm and steady so as to inspire confidence in others own
safety as passenger or crewmember.
I am a man who is greater than the sum of his parts. Any
discerning owner, fellow Captain or organization will be
very pleased with me as an integral part of their team or
leader. For
I am easy to get along with, fun and interesting to have
aboard.
