Occasionally I get to drive the icebreaker when we're actually breaking
ice since my guys & I have been sailing with the crew for so long that
they treat us as part of them. 4th Mate :-) Powerboating writ large,
conning a big ship down ice leads and doing bank shots off the sides to
go round a corner tighter than the ships turning radius. An experience
few people will ever have.

Sounds like a blast. Id love to take a 6,900 ton icebreaker and crush
every powerboat in this marina. But as you say... only the very lucky
get a shot at so much fun.
