I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Harold at CSY Yacht Corp. in the 1980's. I also had the privilege of delivering a yacht from Tampa to the British Virgin Islands with him and his son Scott in 1990. I had never sailed before that trip, but during the two week trip, Harold gave me a phenomenal course on sailing.
