Mooron" scribbled thusly: sure is..... How was your trip Ozone? Fantastic, other than spending 2 days hanging off a parachute and having a brand new gearbox explode. Fluffing hard work getting a cat this big alongside with only one engine. Serious bummer. What blew the transmission? And what sort of weather/sea conditions required the chute? Bull Tranny? Don't know, oil etc OK. Got a high temp alarm and it went crackle crunch before we could do without it. I just hate when that happens. 6 metre + seas with average 50kts. We had trouble slowing down enough to prevent leaping out of the waves and the wine glasses were getting in short supply. Wine glasses? Never heard of passing the bottle, eh? ("Whatcha drinkin' there, Bud?" "Lafitte Rothschild '61, Slick--ain't too bad for an old wine." "So gimme a swig, will ya.") Conditions sound like fun, actually. And a good test of the vessel's ability to make the crew feel either confident in her integrity, or rampantly ill, depending upon one's constitution. Bull |
