Chuck Benton

Chuck Benton’s been messing around in boats since childhood. He originally trained as a commercial aircraft pilot, but found tinkering with techniology to be more fun. After developing numerous computer games, he was drafted by DARPA and led a small software/systems research and development company for decades. His designs found homes on SpecOps boats, undersea, even in the telephone networks used today. Picking up his USCG Masters license, he's spent summers skippering a schooner in Maine. More recently, he can be found playing music around New England in a variety of bands. He enjoys twisting his real life experiences and overactive imagination into the fun stories you’ll find in this series.
