Masaki's new home:
After graduation from Boat School, Masaki was offered a job with some friends building house and doing reconstruction work as well as a place to stay until he found the right job. Thanks to Matt Olliffe and Rudy Habner, he was well taken care of. When he was hired at REAL CARRIAGE DOOR CO. in Gig Harbor, Masaki's commute was 45 minutes one way. So he quickly went looking for a place close by. Again with the help a friend, Dave Lovrovich, Masaki found a place near the water of the Puget Sound. He has a small little house with water access. He is happy as a CLAM!!
His front door is on the south side of the house.
He has a fireplace on the North side of his house.
The front of the house faces the west with a
view of the water from his living room.
