Is this Bill Carl that worked at Newton's Auto Service in the late sixties? If so he was a very nice man who showed me how to work on cars!

Billy was yet another piece in the matrix of my life. During my summer breaks from Boca Ciega High School, I worked for Billy on his commercial fishing boat. Too many stories born during that chapter, some I can remember, some I can't, some worthy of sharing others best kept for myself. Fair winds and following seas Capt. May peace be your voyage's end.
