on my first cruise stayed with me for six months and six months later I was in St. Thomas picking my mail up at general delivery and there was a letter from him. He asked if I would document all of his sea time for his CG six pack license. Now he's, 20 years later, driving tug boats in Long Beach Harbor. My has his license as well and was a tug boat captain in San Francisco. Now he's opening a business taking folks out as a mother ship for surfers, bird watchers and kayak fishing off the North Coast of Ca. Lot of fun can start with a six pack! Congratulations!
