Default Miss. Canyon

HI Guys from Miss. Canyon 747..

It's blowing 20kts with gust to 25.. Seas are 6-8 with an occasional 9 .. I'm on a 400 ft flotel intervention vessel and we rockin...

Good thing I got some Zofran and Mecilizine..

It's going to be a rough start for snaps Saturday.. Sunday Is suppose to calm down to 2-4's..

I'll be coming home Saturday..

If it's calmer I'll be trying to go catch some snaps out of Joesph Harbor.. Will be doing some snorkeling and spearfishing..

If any body wants in to share expenses Let me know.. I have a 24' Triton LTS.

Thks

Gunner

We were headed your way last Saturday but started having trouble with one of the motors about 115 miles out. Oil pump went out. Decided to head back in. We had to fill up the engine oil reservoir every nine miles. It took us about 9 hours to get back in. Basically our trip turned in to a 17hr booze cruise. 350 gallons of fuel, 12 gallons oil, 4 cases of beer & 0 fish. Oh well. Maybe next time.

We need to build a forum just for updates from our offshore oil field brothren. So many updates that would save us all a lot of runnnin around. We'd have to find a good method of compensation...!
