Not so fast, Joe. Capt. Otn wasn't quite right. "les remorqueurs de haute mer chargés de sauver les bateaux en
détresse."
That's French for " The tugboats of high sea charged of to save the boats in distress"
So, Capt. Otn should've called it a "high seas salvage tug". Hee he. I know more than a professional Pilot. Taking
French in
school did me good. ;-)

Cheers,
Ellen

No thanks....I just want to experince it once...

It can be lotsa fun.
We use to play a game called space man on the Halter Marine crewboats,
they had a 20 ft overhead in the galley. If you time your jumps
perfectly it's like floating in space, up all the way to the overhead
touch it like a feather and land back on deck like a pillow, if you
time your jump wrong your slammed off the overhead and into the deck
crushed like a beer can.
