    I like your Lic. better, You get to Skipper the Party Cruises.

    Blue ski and blue water! very tempting.
    It's dark here at 4:30pm and we had an inch of snow in the last hour.
    I've worked on 60% of the tugs in this area, including the "Steamer Portland" (now a museum) and both of the tractor tugs w/ 360 degree propulsion.
    Most have engines taller than 6'. Some W.O.T. 450rpm with 2sec. delay shaft brakes. 10 or more fuel and ballast tanks. 40t wench wires and 5-7" howser lines (sound like cannon fire when broken) Long hours and little sleep. Wimps need not apply!
    Too many war stories to tell, I"m just glad I still have all my limbs.
    I know a few, not so lucky. and others that went down with all hands.
    Be careful out there

    Capt. Big Koala, You really know how to hurt a guy....
    If I ever get to your coast, I WILL look you up.
    BTW I had my picture taken with my arm around a real Koala bear (Perth)
    He didn't even notice me but he shure saw all the eucaliptus leaves behind me.
