Boating Skills To Keep You Afloat

Meet Prudence Fishwater — Marketing, Pink Gin, and Fleeting Dockyard Fame

Pru joined HamstersAHOY! in 2024 and quickly rose to become First Mate in the dockyard. Her impressive range of positions would have made anyone a millionaire by 25, but Pru prefers to command a flotilla from the poop deck with Pink Gin in hand.

A Little About Pru

♦   Marketing talent with creative flair and a dash of chaos

♦   Hands-on dockyard experience, briefly tackling boat building and welding

♦   Unerring commitment to the project’s morale and visibility

Pru’s Role in the Project

Pru brings energy, creativity, and occasional wild ideas to the conversion process. While she may not wield a welder every day, her influence is felt through branding, documenting progress, and keeping the team’s spirits high.
