I was just curious what everyone does for a living on here. I know we all love our off time boating but what do people do during there 9-5 grind that affords us to enjoy our boating life. For me Im a Geophysist/Geologist, living in houston working for an oil major..I specialize in deepwater (4000ft +) assests and exploration offshore Nigeria.

I am a blood sucking lawyer, but please don't hold that against me, I am actually a pretty nice guy.

Like ire mon, I too am a blood sucking lawyer. But I much prefer drinking beer and being on my 192 tournament with the kids and wife.

I am a spokesman for a major oil company in Houston. And I almost needed a lawyer when I bought my boat without telling my wife!

I can contribute my divorce 2 years ago to the purchase of my grady, she said okay, then decided no after I already had it..Great thing is I got my grady that I wanted since I was a kid, bonus is the new girlfriend loves to spend time on it more then me :) its a good problem...

Thanks for those who are preticipating in this I just thought it would be interesting to see and maybe some connections made, so far a few cops, a few lawyers and and few oil guys...special thanks to our boys in blue, keep up the good work.

I am a Sales Director for a Copier/Software company. 15 years selling BS. Whatever, it pays the bills and allows me to have a 330 Express.

River Rat, yeah, you general contractors suck. :D just kigging! We have a 1932 house, so I rely on you guys a lot. Knock on wood, I have really had good experiences with my contractors. Except for the money it costs to keep up an old house. Kind of like a Grady. Money pits.

I'm a Manager at a Wholesale Distributor of Wine and Spirits. I'm sure that most everybody has some of our products when out.
Just remember to have a designated driver and have fun.
