Location:
Nantucket, MA, United States
Occupation:
Lobsterman
I loan because:
I was very poor as a child but am blessed with a "job" that I consider to be a fun adventure, lobstering out of Nantuclet.
About me:
I now own a 36 foot lobsterboat and go on a "boatride" three or four days a week for four months to haul my lobster traps and make the money I need for the whole year. Couldn't be better for a wharf rat like me!
