From Wiki:
A shipmate is literally a mate on one's own ship, ie. a member of the same
crew. A sailor of the oceans and seas who demonstrates selfless dedication
and loyalty, putting the crew, the ship and the mission above his/her self
interests.


So...

Who on this list would you prefer to ship with?



And who would you avoid at all costs?





I've sailed with Doug and Bart, so I can put them in the first category. As
to the second, it seems rather obvious.




Tha's just too cool...

I don't know why, but it always surprises me to find people on the
groups who have actually met face to face.
