Heading out tomorrow
In Portland tomorrow, we will be dropping off our guests, then heading south to the dry dock in Alameda, CA. This is looking like it will be quite a trip, the seas have been pretty rough over this route, and don’t look to be letting up any time soon. From the look of it we may be in for 20 foot seas, which will be quite a bit more than anything I’ve seen to date. The biggest we have seen while I was aboard was 10 feet, and that was moving enough to make most of the crew pretty sick. This should be interesting.
The good news is that we have everything pretty much buttoned up, and ready to go, so all that I’ll need to do it keep an eye on the boat and make sure that everything is running good. Good deal for me.
Once we get to Alameda, I get about a week off, before I start my next 6 week rotation. This is a good deal for me, as I wasn’t quite ready for 6 weeks off financially yet. I’m looking forward to some time with Mia, though!
