Slop Chest by D Zachorne

So, a little about me. I have lived aboard a boat since I was born; my parents moved aboard when they married. I currently live aboard my 1937 Alden cutter Atea in Wickford, Rhode Island. I have spent my entire life learning and practicing the ways of the sea and sailors. From intricate knotwork, scrimshaw, and ship models, to rigging, building, and operating of vessels. I have always loved the sea and enjoyed the traditions and arts of the seafaring man. Over the years I've held the positions of seaman, bo'sun, mate, and captain on many vessels big and small. I have built vessels, rigged them, and sailed them. My adventures have taken me along the eastern seaboard from Halifax, Novia Scotia down to the British Virgin Islands and Bermuda. I have been involved with various projects and serving the US Coast Guard as a consultant, rigger, and surveyor, as well as other outfits such as G. W. Zachorne, Jr. and Sons Boat Builders, Gannon and Benjamin Marine Railway, Beetle Boat Works, and Black Dog Tall Ships. My artwork, ship models, scrimshaw, and markinspike handiwork is scattered across the country and abroad. It resides in the New York Yacht Club model room, Broadway, museums, and organizations like the Rhode Island Arts Council.
