Bio

Introduction:
I nominate the above person in that category because he spent 19 years sailing to various ports mainly in the United States of America. In 1918 at the tender age of 17 and under the auspices of his father Henry London Ebanks he went to sea. On these voyages he was taught by his father the art of navigation and within a few years he obtained employment as a master mariner. After 19 years of sailing, he joined his brother Donald, in 1937, as a caretaker of Swan Island where he remained for the next 30 years in the employ of the United Fruit Company and thereafter the United States Government.
