All Hands on Deck with Will Sofrin

Will Sofrin is an artist, a writer, a designer, a builder, a sailor and aspiring surfer. At a young age, Will enrolled in an apprenticeship at International Yacht Restoration School of Technology & Trades to learn how to build and restore wooden yachts. As an apprentice, he studied the mechanics of wooden boats and naval architecture, where eventually he became a professional sailor, using his specialized wood-working skillset to secure positions on the yachts and ships that I would sail throughout Europe, New England, the Caribbean, Central America, and the California coast. He is a licensed captain but eventually went on to become an expert in product development. He will be launching his new book soon, All Hands on Deck, The final voyage of the American Tall Ship, Rose and other seafaring tales. He is our guest on this episode of Swell Season Surf Radio.
