Default apprentice

Best advice I can give is to work in a yard or a rigging shop and "learn the ropes" that way.

Even with a masters degree in mechanical engineering and bachelors in naval architecture (artichoke-nice Brion) each boat and each rig will tax your knowledge.

"Will it work?" and "Will it fit?" will soon become the two most hated questions you will ever ask yourself.

With that aside...it is truly a rewarding vocation.

Cheers,

Tom
