Started sailing in Norway and in San Francisco from 1976.  Took all the classes USPS had to offer.  Started teaching USPS courses in 1982.
My family were all teachers,  so I am one of them.  To help students  reach higher standards in seamanship is one of USPS’s goals. I like to be a part of this process.
