Hello. As you can see I am a boater. I have spent 30 years as a professional captain running rivers and the coast, all kinds of vessels. My current job is Head captain on the Gorge Explorer Tennessee Aquarium 55 mph hydro foil assisted catamaran. The portrait is of me at the helm. The go fast pic is the Explorer. I also deliver large yachts everywhere. The paddlewheel boat is my full time home. I love my job but it is still a job. At 57 I have decided to focus on developing a full time income from the internet. I need to be able to quit running boats for a living so I can travel my boat to live. It ain’t cheap! I have friends all up and down the river from Pittsburgh to New Orleans who need to see old Captain Mike come paddling in on the Chattanooga Star. I have cell phone service, air-card internet and sat TV. I am ready to go; the boat is ready to go. I CANT AFFORD TO GO! I am here to learn to be able to afford the decadent lifestyle I envision for my senior years. I am looking forward to inviting future affiliate friends to joining me on the river or coast when I start my golden year’s never ending cruise. I figure I need to be hitting $70k annually in order to quit the daytime job and cast off. So there, that’s my goal. Course, so far the only thing I’ve learned about the net is how to loose money, but that in itself is a beginning! I think that is about to change. Make it so!
