"The man who put
America on the water"
Try to imagine an extremely diligent worker, a workhorse really, sitting quietly at his desk for hours sketching numerous yacht designs, which he, along with his team of designers, engineers and draftsman, developed into an amazing 7,000 yachts and ships. Picture this man, and then imagine another man conducting orchestras, painting, writing poetry, drawing cartoons, and telling jokes to his friends and family. |
