Summary

Adventure and excitement-this describes Andy Green. Building and sailing racing sailboats all over the world, designing and creating unique new structures from composites, building a business from scratch, meeting and working with some of the best-known people in the world-all these things describe the unique life of Andy Green. His motto is "Keep on keeping on," and this certainly fits him. His has been a very successful racing (sailboats) career, and an equally successful engineering career, having developed many revolutionary new concepts and products-like the Chaparral Race Car Chassis, walkway bridges up to ninety feet, two-hundred-foot telescoping tower, all-composite buildings for Apple, AT&T, and Underwriters Labs. There have been plenty of ups-and-downs along the way, including some tragedies; however, all these things have been, overcome. His perseverance and determination helped; however, he says he has been guided and blessed by God throughout his life, and his wife and partner, has also, been an inspiration.
