We try to avoid hitting debris, but it can be hard because there is limited visibility on the water and many times things like logs will float just below the surface of the water so you won't know it's there until you hear the noise.

I'll never forget it. We could hear those kids screaming in delight and terror from a half mile away. We must have looked like a pirate ship emerging from nowhere. That was the only time since I've been on the Nina that I wished I could have been watching it from land instead of being on deck.

We have to be careful not to be satisfied now. We can't make it our crown jewel.

When we bring something in, we usually only bring three or four pieces in.

A lot of these customers are our friends.
