Dear Sir/Madam;
I''ve worked (as a younger man) for a party boat captain out of Half Moon Bay harbor where I was a deck-hand on an eighty-five foot vessel named "Chubasco". I crewed in Seattle''s famous "25th Annual Wooden Boat Festival" last year, and recently (late August and early September, 2001) I sailed with two friends around the BVI''s. The two weeks on-board our Benneteau 411 taught me, once again, the extreme pleasure the oceans of this world have to offer. At this point in my life, I would do just about anything to become gainfully employed on the water!

Attached is a resume'' listing my most recent work history, though not listed are my years during high school and college where I worked as a server at some of California''s and Arizona''s best restaurants including Tchafalaya River Cafe, a high end cajun-based restaurant, and When In Naples, one of the Tomaso family of eateries with stores located in Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona. In each of these restaurants I became the top earner, fully satisfying all expectations and exceeding those when possible. I can commit to, at the very least, a year of service, but would be more than willing to make sailing a career and learn the business from the ground up.

I love the water, am not afraid of work, am very good with people, have the ability to provide the best eating / sailing / sleeping / dining experience your customers will ever know. I can be reached at 928.226.1060, cell: 480.570.7722, or via e-mail at rodgersworks@netzero.net anytime.

If you are receiving this e-mail incorrectly, please, please, PLEASE, forward to the appropriate party. Thank you very much for your time and I look forward..........GREATLY look forward to hearing from someone soon.

Sincerely (and anxiously),
Jack J. Rodgers
