Like I said, they went out and sacrificed a vessel that had outlived its purpose. It did the trip it was designed and built for, it has no real...
I've got my engineer researching this right now. It appears that several of the better ones have changed hands recently and cut their support and...
The captain was probably trying to pocket some fuel money so he heaved a grapnel onto the back of a passing freighter...
You got lucky, hopefully you learned from that run and don't decide to do it again as an Arctic front is pushing south. We only have 2 weeks of...
So, exactly what are you doing to stop whaling? Or Australia for that matter? Seems to me nothing but whinging.
The West coast south of the Bay area has only a few limited protected places to put boats. The east coast has thousands of miles worth of inland...
Not a chance in hell. Figure about as cheap as you'll find a slip in Cal is $7.00/ft/month, that's $245 for a 35'er. Many places are considerably...

Probably the cheapest slips for you will be in Wilmington there on the Cerritos Channel just west of the Henry Ford bridge There's some old...
Do you have your STCW-95 Basic completed yet? That is the first thing you will need on 95% of the boats you will have an opportunity to work, so...
Aliens? Has anyone checked the captain or mate for signs of **** probing?
Who would try pulling it without floating it first though?
They're screwed. Warranties don't survive reorganization. The new manufacturer could offer replacements at a good value while still making a...
Well, people with a bit more knowledge and experience than you are looking at the evidence and weighing the future of the company against the...
What station are you starting at and what is the max radius?
Yeah, we know, it's what Paul does, it always has been, he makes no bones about it. His mission is to inflict enough economic damage that it makes...
That's actually really good. You can see what the AG tried to do was throttle up to get in front and the Japanese Captain wasn't having any of it...
