About This Podcast
The “how to” boating knowledge you need!
Hi! I’m Capt Frank Lanier, a retired U.S. Coast Guard officer and SAMS® Accredited Marine Surveyor with over 40 years of experience in the maritime and diving industry.
I’m also an author, public speaker, and multiple award-winning journalist whose articles appear regularly in numerous marine publications worldwide, such as BoatUS Magazine, Practical Sailor Magazine, Southern Boating Magazine and Lakeland Boating Magazine.
Tune in as we discuss a wide range of boating topics, from boat maintenance, inspections, repairs and upgrade projects, to seamanship, safety, consumer reports and everything in between!
