Sitting in the wheelhouse of this classic yacht, I’m reminded how powerful reflection really is, what worked, what didn’t, and where I need to grow. This boat was built in the 1950s, yet over the past year it’s taught me lessons no modern design ever could. As a new yacht builder, it’s easy to get distracted by what’s new and flashy. But restoring and running a classic reminds you that everything strong starts with a solid foundation. Fundamentals matter. Craft matters. Patience matters. This year is a building year. I’m doubling down on strengthening my sales skills while creating this Skool platform to help others do the same. Follow along—and let’s take 2026 to an astronomical level.

It only takes a few minutes to wipe things down. A little elbow grease and some good products, this boat could sell for tens of thousands more. Regardless of what clients say, no one can “see past dirt”.

Took the day off to do a little bay fishing.
