Its hard to pin down exactly when "Bug" started at Island Creek, but the idea was hatched somewhere in South America when Skip and he were traveling down there a few years back. Shore is lovingly referred to as chief "suit" and is tasked with running the wholesale company, focusing mainly on marketing and strategy including the Island Creek Foundation and the Island Creek Oyster Festival. Shore's passion for the water makes office life tough, but getting out on the farms are a great way to avoid paper work (though being away from his fax machine does stress him out).
A Duxbury native, Shore now commutes from his house in the South End neighborhood of Boston.
Off the water:
Shore spends hours on the golf course, raising vegetables on his roof deck, and plays Bass in the Rock Band Just the Tip.
