Roy Ston, a.k.a., “Small Change”
I am mostly a hands-on boat owner. Meaning, I do most of my own
maintenance. Hiring work out is costly
and I have found that quality control usually suffers.
Motivator’s only
exterior teal is a very conspicuous rail around the cockpit. I gave it a couple of coats of new varnish
last year, but noticed that the rail on our sister ship, the Izzy R looked somewhat better. Captain Jeff has been employing Small Change
to do his varnish.
At age 67, Small Change has been doing varnish in the U.S.
and the islands for close to 50 years.
He shows up with just the clothes on his back, but is very particular
about the owner supplied materials. Most
of Motivator’s stock did not meet his
specifications, so I had to go shopping.
Finishing touches,
reinstalling the rod holder
After I leave Grenada I may go back to doing my own varnish;
it’s that cost and quality control issue I have. Besides, watching Small Change I picked up
some trade secrets. But, whenever I am
in Grenada, I’ll be calling Small Change.
