What Is It About Boating...?

BOATING, whether in a sailboat, fishing boat, cruiser or ski boat means something different to each boat owner. Boats get us to our favorite fishing spots, pull water skiers, take us to destinations across the water. But more than that, there's a common thread that binds us together as boaters. Is it community, common interest, common calling? Is it passion for something inexplicable? This site contains articles, videos and blogs that explore the passion of our favorite pastime.

About Me

My photo
William L. Gills - Bos'n Bill
I should have been a seal, a tern, a seagull, a sea captain. Instead I pursued a career in human resources and played drums and guitar in various bands throughout the years. I love boating like music, always have. I haven't figured out what the allure is, but it's always been there and like music, it's captivated me from an early age. I love being outdoors, in the back yard, in the woods, on a ski slope, but mostly on the water. Lately I've been writing non-fiction about some of those experiences; the latest book title being, Lubber's Log (Llumina Press).
