Starting classes again…lifeboat

So…. Computer broke again. It’s taken me a while to retrieve the last few entries and all the photos of the last couple of months from the carcas of my old machine. I have spent the money from my cargo time on a new macbook. yeah.

I am back on land and back to school. Last week I went to Lifeboat class. Lots of rowing. I gots blisters. At first I was very ambivelent about taking a class to deploy a class of boat that doesn’t exit in the tow industry. But the class had some good seamanship points that were subtle and possibly unintended. The working of a gravity davit is fairly useless knowledge as far as I am concerned, but learning a new potentially dangerous operation, then taking each role - including supervisor was a great process to go through.
