Spike here with some tough medicine to swallow. The world of @WeBeautifyBoats is the family of crew, clients and marine service contractors I have sacrificed my entire life for since 1997.
In the beginning I hustled this business into existence on my roller skates, alone, traversing the province with nobody to answer to but my dreams, goals and passion for the environment.
.
Today I realize not much has changed except for acquiring a lot more tools, a boat and a sweet van. I am still alone, forcing it, fighting the feeling that I will soon grow weary from the grind.

My values are being put into to question.
I will recount them here for you now
Stretch goals
Continuous Improvement
Finding the flow state
Unconscious competence
Looking forward
Respectful rapport
Constant Feedback
Love

I will be on the water.
I’m in business to be on the water.
Never have I or will I be on the water to be in business.
Know the difference and approach the knowledge of why I am Spike On The Water.
We don’t do fear. We do awesome.
