Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration is my father, who is not an entrepreneur at all but a company man. He killed himself for 45 years for a thankless employer who treated him with such disrespect at the end I decided to never let someone do that to me. My father built a company, made millions for them and then once it was profitable enough to sell, pushed him out the door.

How do you stay motivated?

I genuinely enjoy what I am doing a majority of the time. Of course there are cold and dark mornings I dont want to jump in the water, and heavy shark activity days off Chatham that make me question every shifting current but I remember thats why there are so few alternatives to us on the cape!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use it for a combination of new dive equipment (salt water ruins everything) , underwater lighting, lead generation and a repower of my work skiff.
