This past spring, Jeff connected with Merrill Charette, a smart and ambitious influencer in the Marine industry, and was asked to be a guest on Merrill’s Shipshape podcast series. Before committing as a guest, Jeff listened to previous interviews from friends and colleagues in the industry and was pleased to sign on and take his turn on the microphone. Merrill’s podcast specializes in entertaining conversations about all things maritime with an impressive lineup of guests every week.
The podcast was recorded on an informal zoom call and resulted in an hour of great conversation. Turns out Jeff and Merrill share a lot more than just the name Merrill! In this episode, the pair dives into Jeff’s history with boating, the intricacies of trawler sales, the evolution of boat design and how YouTube has shaped Jeff’s profile for trawler seekers.
Thank you, Merrill. It was fun talking to you and I look forward to catching up on the episodes I’ve missed and will stay tuned for future ones. Keep up the good work!
