Captain “Bully” Waterman

For more than a decade, it has been a goal to publish small books about sea captains who sailed into San Francisco during the 1800s with hundreds of passengers and thousands of tons of merchandise on each vessel.

We have found a near-perfect method . . . Kindle eBooks. The first of the publications is online and available now just by clicking here:

Captain Robert (Bully) Waterman

This is a small book with news of Captain Waterman’s sailing life; this Captain set sailing records on clipperships during the mid-1800s which have not been bested to date.
