Your work is much-appreciated, gentlemen.

How come I have never heard of any of these guys?!?!? :grinser010: :lolhit:

These website's would be a lot less meaningful without these guys doing what they do. Do what you can to support them!

Thank you for your support BIG TIME !!!

Your order should arrive by the end of the week... :drink:

Thank you again Matt !

Having grown up with boats and not much longer after coming out of high school I got into building and manufacturing boats it's no wonder why I am still around this sport.

I was also repairing race boats and can usually be found between races in Key West helping people get to the next race.

Before I knew it I was racing "Apollo II", a 30 ft Shadow Cat with Triple Outboards and when that boat was retired I was picked up by the B-Class Team Shock Wave and raced with them for several years.

Once I got engaged I hung up my helmet and took a break from boating.

Then I was drawn back into the performance boats once again as I joined the NJPPC.

A great group of people who I can honestly say had a lot to do with me moving forward with the photography of performance boats.

The club has got me more involved with things over the years that I may not otherwise had an opportunity to do.

With the NJPPC Club's support and so many of its affiliates, I don't think I would be headed in the direction I am going today without all of their support.

To them, I am grateful and very thankful !!!

And BTW Matt .....

I appreciate making your list of Photographers that shoot Offshore...

:angry-smiley-038:

Thanks for the articles. It is always interesting to see the people behind the fantastic work they post. As an amateur photographer, I am always interested in the perspective of those who do it for a living and who do it very well. Thanks again and thank you to these great photographers.
