| DIRECTIONS: 1452 South Pasadena Ave. (Wendy's address) Take Central Ave. west to S. Pasadena Ave. (toward the beaches, past 66th St.). Turn left on S. Pasadena Ave. Go to HUFFMAN WAY (across from Palms of Pasadena Hospital, the next traffic light after "WENDY'S"). There is no left-turn lane, if traffic is heavy, you can use the U-turn lane about 200 feet farther. Drive between "International Medical Laboratories" & "Shamrock Dental Services". You will see sailboat masts ahead. Drive into the marina, follow road to right. Boat is near far end, slip 6IA. (This is a live-aboard marina with many residents. Please try not to disturb their morning. My engines are noisy enough!) Short cut: Pull into "WENDY'S", drive across back-lot of "International Medical Laboratories". Head for the big gray wall. See "PASADENA MARINA" sign on your left. Turn in and drive down the gravel road If you are late, I will wait! Just call me (727) 742-1252 No fish cleaning in my marina. Be prepared to take them home whole, in your cooler. I have ice. Please don't arrive too early! |

| I worked on offshore oiI boats in 1969 after leaving the Marine Corps. Received my 1st. Master's license in 1984. Former commercial fisherman. Viet Nam veteran (USMC). Easy-going Cajun. In my culture, when you are old enough to walk, you're going fishing! My ancestors have been fishing the Gulf of Mexico for over 200 years. I'm happy when you're reeling away at something that would rather stay in the sea. Former utility-boat captain in the Louisiana offshore oil-fields, navigator for LORAC Services Corp, captain for TransWorldServices. I have been looking at water most of my life (except for a brief time in the jungle; grunt in 2nd. battalion, 4th marines). I offer a relaxed affordable day on the water for those who need a day of no stress on a laid-back & personal fishing trip. Most of my regulars are retirees. Member, Disabled American Veterans |

| "CAJUN" is a gov't surplus ex-navy "Admirals' Barge" personnel carrier. I bought her from the gov't totally stripped. I transferred 2 diesel engines from my old wood boat, installed new reduction gears (transmissions), all electronics, hydraulic steering, autopilot, all electrics, fuel tanks, windshield, overhead, DC and AC electrical systems, etc. myself. $0 labor costs. Fuel cumsumption is always under 20 gallons/day of diesel. Cosmetically, she is still a work in progress. |
