Jayson Grimes was 19 back in 1990 when he went to work aboard towboats. He credits a few friends of his who'd already started out in the industry with introducing him to life as a mariner. "They kept coining home and telling me about it," Grimes recalled. "I said, 'Hell, I'm interested. I'll try it,' and 31 years later, I'm still out here. I'm just 50, so I've got a ways to go." Grimes, who earned the nickname "Goob" from his Little League days playing catcher and "clowning around" with umpires and batters, started out with Hollywood Marine, where he worked for about 11 years. He spent six years decking for Hollywood before moving into the wheelhouse. |
