Nathaniel began boating with the purchase of his first sailboat, a home-built 39′ trimaran at the age of 19 while attending UCSD. He has since owned a 26′ sailboat in the Caribbean, a 35′ motorsailer in the Mediterranean and now a 40′ trawler in Coronado. He has boating experience ranging from living aboard in San Diego to single-handing in the Caribbean on a shoestring budget to cruising with a wife and two year-old in Croatia.
Nathaniel’s interests include sailing and motor-boating, boat and home projects, spending time outdoors, raising his two young children, romancing his wife, wine and food. His professional experience includes years of ensuring customer satisfaction in a luxury setting and he’s a stickler for the details. In his free time you can find him at the Coronado Rec Center or Library, running, skiing, biking, spending time at the beach or the playground, making travel plans and pretending to help his Realtor wife.
He has experience with USCG Documentation, DMV Registration, and buying and selling vessels abroad. He is currently working toward his Captains license.
