Sailing Yacht August Maverick

“Shawn holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering from the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, & a Master’s Degree in Social Organizational Psychology from Columbia University. He served nine years at sea in the U.S. Coast Guard aboard cutters from Alaska to Bahrain to Hawaii.  He is a licensed Merchant Mariner with a 1600-ton Oceans Master License. Now that we’ve gotten all of the serious things out of the way, we figured you’d like to know a little more about this one. He’s pretty cool.  Shawn is a talented craftsman. He makes cutting boards, paddles, picture frames, & much more, all from gorgeous wood. Shawn is a die-hard fan of pretzels. Any kind of pretzels. Most of us consider Shawn to be amphibious. He spends much of his time underwater, sometimes to the concern of others.” “Jackie has an extensive background in Sales, Marketing & Customer Service. Having worked over 15 years in retail, she honed her skills in team training, customer education, customer service roles, and, most recently, in taking a small business from conception through branding, product development, and finally, to market in national retail outlets. She LOVES cooking and testing new recipes (which is code for eating new recipes). While she thrives in good weather, she loves a good, dreary rainy day – that’s the Seattle girl in her. She’s a family girl through and through.”
