Ted Sensenbrenner, a program manager for the BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety & Clean Water, has joined Mad Mariner's Advisory Committee, a group of professionals in the marine, journalism and technology fields who advise the company on a volunteer basis.

Sensenbrenner has spent the last 10 years working for BoatU.S., following a career that included turns as both a professional sailor and a marina manager. At the Foundation, he oversees the informal product testing series called Foundation Findings, where he and his team have covered topics ranging from environmental products to man overboard and recovery systems. He is also active in the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators and the American Boat and Yacht Council.

Mad Mariner's editors look forward to tapping his broad knowledge of the boating community on a variety of important topics, including safety and environmental protection.
