Skippers

 

 fish 036

San Gina is skippered by Doug (or as some of you might know him, Captain Jack!) Doug has skippered San Gina for three summer seasons, but has been fishing on boats and the shore since he was a boy and loves every minute of it.  Me and Doug have fished together for around fifteen years on the shore and at sea, so when I was looking for someone to run the boat there was only one man for the job.

 

San Gina II is skippered by me Tom Greasty. I’ve been fishing from the age of  five, starting with coarse fishing and then sea fishing. At thirteen I started working aboard San Gina as crew and back then the boat was skippered by Gerry Randle. He had the boat built specially and knew a thing or two about fishing and the local area. I bought the boat in 1999 when Gerry finally retired (I think he was nearly eighty), then became the skipper of the boat at eighteen.  Later in 2006  I bought San Gina II. I am also a  volunteer  lifeboat crew at Swanage and have been for ten years .
