"I'm a third generation Great Lakes Captain, following the path of my father and grandfather. I oversee all of Shepler's ship captains and have been at the helm for over 10 years. Naturally, I've pretty much seen it all...from the placid waters of mid summer to autumn's heaving swells. I know these waters like I know my front yard and have a spotless safety record."
