Before coming ashore in 1995 to start FairWeather Group, Dan spent almost 20 years traveling the world’s oceans as a navigator on merchant ships. During his travels, he visited every US state except for North Dakota, and every country in the Western Hemisphere except for Bolivia and Paraguay. All three places are, of course, far from the ocean. The attention to detail required for navigation and the problem-solving skills required to safely manage a ship both prepared him to solve the problems of growing small businesses.
