Since the beginning of time and sure to be well into the future, our primal fear of the deep Oceans persist. There are some who brave the abyss for exploration, others for exploitation, and then there are the few that day in and day out don the suits and gear to work beneath the waves. It is this group to which the author had the good fortune to belong and what brings the subject matter and stories in this book. From Sail to Supertankers and enormous Containerships, there is no limit on how far we've advanced to tame the Seas and conquer the Oceans. The question is: How far can you go to take on the challenges of working beneath these man-made behemoths? This book was written in hopes of giving the reader a front row seat to more of the adventures and sharing the joys of success along with tales of terror in the deep, being asked to perform nearly impossible tasks to keep ships in service in the highly competitive maritime shipping community.
