Mike Hazard grew up in the beautiful Pacific Northwest where he enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard in 1970. For the next 6 years he lived a childhood dream and responded to dozens of calls for search and rescue from boaters on the Straits of Juan de Fuca and points south of Tatoosh Island. His first duty assignment took him to Biorka Loran on Biorka Island, fifteen miles west of Sitka, Alaska, for twelve months. He was next attached to Coast Guard Station Neah Bay at Neah Bay, Washington, where he served as a Motor Lifeboat Engineer for nearly two years on CG40501 and CG44364. For his final assignment, he was attached to Boating Safety Detachment 13 (BOSDET 13) at Sandpoint Naval Air Station, Seattle, Washington. Growing up in the Northwest he and his father built 5 different boats together and spent countless hours sailing on Puget Sound and Capital Lake. He became familiar with the search and rescue mission of the Coast Guard while watching the rescue boats depart and return at Grays Harbor and Cape Disappointment Washington. Part of his training took place at Motor Lifeboat Engineer School at Cape Disappointment and at the National Boating Safety School in Yorktown, Virginia. He holds an AS degree in Construction Management and a BS in Business from UNLV. He currently works and lives with his family in Las Vegas, Nevada. His writing career came to life with his first novel The Sea’s Fury in January of 2007.
