Gyle McGurn is our man representing Maui and we are very proud of him. After graduating, Gyle has been diligently making the effort to sail offshore on his license. He has spent time working on the vessels operated by P & M Services ( affiliate of Mana’o Nui ) running out to the Leeward Islands and other voyages on contract to the Federal Gov’t. Recently after patiently waiting his time, Gyle was able to land a job with Matson, through the MM&P hall, just this week:
“Aloha Capt Ed! I scored big time last week and got a rotary third mate job on the Lurline. Iʻm flying to Oakland on Tuesday to meet the ship. Iʻll be sure to send you a pic of myself at work before your fundraiser event. Hope youʻre doing well as always, and I guess Iʻll be seeing you on that pilot ladder pretty soon!
Mahalo, Gyle “
