Rustan Asker is an experienced sailor who comes from a long line of sailors and boatmen.
As a young boy Rustan helped his father, Henry Asker, and uncles in their shipping business transporting goods and passengers along the west coast.
As a teenager he worked as a boatman on the company’s four ships, and when storms set in, he helped with salvaging work along the coast. They also serviced lighthouses around Tjörn and Orust.
