By Annie Means Verified| Talkin' Boats With Soundings@ For most mariners, the opportunity to buy a dream boat is a rare privilege. Few are so fortunate, and even fewer manage to do so by cold-calling an expired ad they spotted four years earlier.

By Annie Means Verified| Session Magazine@ In the lower latitudes of the South Pacific, the dawn air feels dense and slumbering. As the sun rises, light rain settles on the crested hills of this verdant island. Already men, and one particular woman, arrive sleepily at the marina.

By Annie Means Verified| withitgirls.com@ My first real conversation with Rose Huizenga took place, fittingly, onboard a dive boat. As we bumped across the teal waters of Indonesia’s Gili Matra Marine Park, it quickly became apparent that Rose is no regular business owner or marine conservationist. Every once in a while, you meet someone who possesses the unique ability to draw others in and inspire them to be their best selves. Rose Huizenga is undeniably one of those rare individuals.
