He was the Master of eleven vessels on the east coast: the schooners Fury, Morning Light, Pescador, Ida Thunlaw, Ben Haskell, George S. Law, Seth, Stockbridge, J.J. Clark, Joseph Storey, William H. Jordan, Mountain King.

He owned most or part of all of them. After arriving on this coast he chartered the steamer Velos and went fishing for halibut, one of the first to do so.
