Have not been in 10 years. Not going to break my string. Not going.
Personal reasons.

No boat, back in the suds.

That's great, Ron! Good to see the next generation working in the industry and enjoying fishing in general. You and your wife have done a great job, from my seat.

Ron
Glad to hear Leo is doing well
Not easy finding a good ship crew these days
Most kids goin to MMA never go to sea. Huge shortage of licensed and unlicensed mariners.
I’m in my 36th year and tired of missing boating seasons.
Hope he’s maxing the 401k. I can tell ya why if I see you guys this summer.

Hey Jon
Ya, Leo is doing outstanding.
26 years old, 1st engineer on a Crowley tanker that sails Alaska-west coast California
Bought his 1st house last year on the Cape. Walk to the end of his street to the Canal.
Made him a partner in the boat & charter business where he’s taking it to a new level. We are in the middle of a repower with the 33 Flowers with a brand new 530hp diesel
Life is good 👍 |
