Being born and raised in Southern California Mike spent most of his time at his sister’s house in Newport Beach, at or in the ocean. Starting his relationship with the ocean as a very young surfer he progressed into dingy sailing and power boating. He started his career in the entertainment business and spent the first eight years as a professional musician traveling around the country playing clubs, medium to large concerts, and doing various recording.

This addiction started in 1986 and has not gone away since. After racing on other boats for many years, Mike and his wife Diane bought the yacht “Roller” in 1999. Roller is an Andrews 42 which Mike campaigns as a member of Dana Point Yacht Club.
