Captain Adam has been boating and sailing for 30 years, and operating Zodiac inflatable boats for nearly 25 years. Having grown up in Hawaii, he has extensive coastal and offshore boating experience. Adam has logged over 25,000 blue water ocean miles by both power- and sailboats, and is currently active with both. Being either on- or in the water is natural for Adam, and his interests include tow-in surfing with Zodiac inflatable boats, body surfing, SCUBA diving, underwater photography, canoe paddling, Hobie Cat sailing, as well as sailboat cruising and racing. Most importantly, he enjoys sharing both his enthusiasm and substantial boating experience with others.
