The Wiseman
Ed Wise has been playing with boats for almost sixty years and continues to find new and more exciting adventures to spend quality time on the water. The idea that "little" boats are for "little" water has never found a home in the Wiseman's psyche, and I hope that, through sharing my experiences with fellow boaters and friends, I might excite that same sense of adventure for them.

My Pilot Knows
My Pilot Knows
"As moves my fragile boat across storm-swept sea,
Great waves beat o'er her side, as north wind blows;
Deep in the darkness hid lie threat'ning rocks and reefs;
But all of these, and more, my Pilot knows.
Sometimes when darkness falls and every light's gone out,
I wonder to what port my frail ships goes;
Although the night be long, and restless all my hours,
My distant goal, I'm sure, my Pilot knows."
