      Captain/Mate

      I worked under renown Capt Denis Forgione as a captain and mate. We were product testers for Penn Reels so we worked directly with the engineers to maintain an elite standard of quality control. I performed the majority of basic mechanical and electrical maintenance on board as well.

      Captain/Mate

      I was responsible for the safety of the vessel and clients. Since we operate as an inspected vessel I also assisted in keeping up with the USCG regs that we had to maintain in order to pass our yearly inspections.
