Synopsis

5:30 PM. Sunset Marina. Newport Beach. Boats ranging from $500,000 to $12 million. Walter — 76 years old — walked down the dock. Patched overalls. A worn flannel shirt. Beat-up canvas sneakers. A fishing cap that had seen better decades. He carried a bucket and a mop. Because he liked to clean his own boat.
