I'm Wayne The Boat Guy - a few years ago I bought my first boat and started boating. I knew practically nothing about boats or boating before jumping into it with both feet. My channel is dedicated to all the boating and kayak related things I am learning about and doing because I want to share what I have had to struggle to figure out on my own with anyone who might be trying to learn or in the same BOAT as me!
