Oh Captain Bob, My Captain.              May 12 — 15, 2015

About 6 years ago we decided to live on a boat after retirement. We took a boating safety course, purchased a 18′ runabout boat to begin learning on. We became voracious readers of all subjects relating to boats. We were thinking between a 37′ to a 42′ but wanted to be sure.

Trawler School Charters sounded like what we need to attend. This gave us the opportunity to handle a boat that size and living aboard 3 days 4 nights. Your 40′ was more than we needed to be honest we weren’t looking for much more than that from your course.

Even with 6 years of self education we found ourselves learning much more during each class. We especially enjoyed the class about finding the right trawler. You shared 10 years of your in’s & out’s experiences when you were King of the trawler brokers. This inside information will help us immensely when we’re ready to make our purchase.

We have been saving and skimping for the past 6 years so we will be able to buy the right trawler for our needs.

The money we spent was a solid investment. The Trawler live aboard lifestyle was just the way we want it to be when we’re living on board.

We are the bottle water drinking champs- no one drank more than us.

Thanks for everything
