Shipwright

You are a craftsman who has been working with ships long enough to be considered an expert. What drove you to start working on waterborne vessels? Were you born in to the trade, or perhaps you meet a shipwright who inspired you and took you on as an apprentice? Do you own your own shipyard, in which you service others at your own pace, or are you simply a skilled laborer under someone else's employ? What drives you to continue to put your best foot forward on your work, do you seek the approval of a master, do you seek to prove your skill to the world, or do you just simply enjoy seeing ships the way they are supposed to be on the water? Regardless of how you got your start and your current working conditions, you still strive to see that the best quality vessels make it out to sea with your assistance.
