HOSTS
Capt. Gregg Clark - Test Captain
Capt. Gregg Clark holds a USCG 100-Ton Master / 200-Ton Mate license with sailing and towing endorsements. He has over 3,000 documented days of sea service. He currently owns a 56’ Vicem, a 40’ racing sailboat and a 17’ Mako. Capt. Gregg has powered and sailed over 50,000 miles offshore and has raced in many of the world’s premiere distance sailboat races. He is a graduate of Purdue University with degrees in Electrical Engineering and Business from the Krannert School. He has captained motor yachts up to 120’, sailboats up to 100’ and is active teaching both teenagers and adults boat handling skills. He splits his time between Greenwich, CT; Newport, RI and Fort Lauderdale, FL.
Capt. Boomies BoatTEST Captain*
Captain Boomies (aka Capt. Kate) holds a 200- ton USCG license and worked on superyachts for 20 years, captaining vessels up to 150’ before retiring several years ago. She now is a delivery skipper of all manner of vessels. When not testing boats for BoatTEST, she often can be found taking new yachts off their cargo ships in the port of Baltimore, getting them operational, then delivering them to dealerships. Unbeknownst to dozens of boat owners in the Chesapeake Bay, Capt. Boomies was actually the first skipper of their boats. She is also active in boat instruction and making videos for her personal website.

Love the way this test was done compared to the ones I have seen in the past. One negative, background music needs to be much quieter. Great video.
