What an unbelievable finish! Congratulations to my dear friend, mentor, and truly incredible human being, Captain Bob Yates! At 79 years young, Captain Bob of the Black Whale and the New Jersey Maritime Museum has taught me much of what I know about living a successful and safe life at sea. His knowledge, wisdom, and passion continue to inspire us all, and he remains someone we can only aspire to emulate.
Well done, Captain Bob! A true legend and an inspiration to us all! ❤️🐳🐳🐳
