Steve Wedlock

Born and raised on the coast of Maine, author Steve Wedlock has lived a literal personal life afloat on the seas, with more than 350,000 nautical miles as master of many types of vessels, a marine surveyor, a builder of schooners, a teacher of seamanship, navigation and boat handling. With his deep knowledge, Steve masterfully weaves a tale that takes readers on a thrilling voyage of risk-taking and sleuthing while learning about maritime terms like flotsam and jetsam, sea-based knowledge about ships and navigation,and weather and the stars.

With this first book of the series concentrating on ocean polluters and their effects on the environment and the marine economy- such as fishing, the group of friends take on more serious danger against sinister foes in subsequent volumes of the series.
