From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As a young sailor growing up on Nantucket Island, I was fortunate to know Jack Hobson-Dupont. His book, The Piloting Workbook: 3,500 Exercises in Coastwise Navigation: A Practical Course of Study and Review for Both Beginners and Experienced Navigators, encouraged me to find success in racing 420 sailboats and later working as the Head Adult Sailing Instructor for Nantucket Community Sailing during the summers of 2005 and 2006. With personal instruction from Jack Hobson-Dupont, I have furthered my knowledge in sailing and recently was awarded a 50-ton Master's license with a Towing Endorsement from the United States Coast Guard, making me a Merchant Marine Officer. I am thankful to his teachings and base my financial success around my trust in the knowledge learned from him. Captainconnor (talk) 20:26, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
