== Shipwright, 1914 to 1925 ==
Ed Monk, Sr., began his boat building career in 1914 as an apprentice working on Robert Moran's schooner ''San Juan'', under construction on Orcas Island. In 1915, Monk worked with his father again in St. Helens, OR, building ''The City of Portland'', "one of the largest wooden freighters ever built." He continued to work for his father at Meacham and Babcock, a boatyard started in Seattle, WA, during World War I to build twelve wooden freighters for the US Government.〔 During this time, he became more interested in designing boats and began studying toward that end.〔 Meacham and Babcock closed in 1919. Monk continued to work at various boatyards in Seattle and eventually found his way to the Blanchard Boat Co. in 1925. He was hired as a shipwright, but soon began to design small boats.〔 His first large cruiser design, the 62 foot motor yacht ''Silver King'', was built there in 1925
