Bull****...... Don't try telling that to the guys that fish
King Crab in the Bering Sea, in December...... There isn't one
of them, that hasn't seen a Rogue Wave...come up and slam their
vessel that wasn't at least twice what the sea was doing at the
time......

Me been there, seen that, and lived to tell the tale.......

Lets see..... my first day on the Bering was 1983, December 26. Spent
some time up around the horse shoe, some around the mushroom, and even
hit the donut hole a year later. Got to puke my guts out side the Elbo
Room a time or two. Hung with some to the Magone guys on the beach,
good friend from high school lived in the only dome in Dutch, called in
orders of just about anything and had "Any Cab" deliver it, and
generally had a fun time.

I've left foot prints on the celling and still say, their aint no such
thing as a rogue wave.
Still Bobbing
Oh, I almost forgot.............. GFY


So you went to Dutch, and spent some time in the Bars..... that's
really a Big Whoop.... Now tell us all the boat you GreenHorned on,
or maybe the boat you Deckhanded on, after that, as a Fullshare Deckhand.
Lots of guys talk big in the bars, and turn out to be processors from
Unalaska, who never spent an hour, standing wheelwatch in a 90 Knot
breeze off the Port Quarter, with the B ow buried under 30 ft of Green
Water. There are guys who have fished that country in a 58Ft Limit
Seiner. Now that takes Guts..........

Me not that gutsy...... at least not any more........
