Dead freind makes me think.
Thanks everyone
it is great to hear you views. besides thinking about my friend, I was actually thinking about it for myself, but not until many, many more years of boating and living. I am thinking of bagpipes, dixeland band and scatter ashes at sea. Thanks again |

Sounds like a plan to me!

I'm hoping I blow back into the cockpit and clog the scuppers ... just for

Made me wonder when I go, is there laws against scattering ashes at sea? Legally, all that's required is that you be at least 3 miles offshore. Peggie A traditional send-off for a departed surfer includes a 'paddle-out' to the selected surf break and then simply scatter the ashes. Prolly not even 100 yards off-shore.. http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2003...0322_44_47.txt http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/n...c20taylor.html Peace... Rick |

Having done this a few times on board ships, learned the hard way to put
the container holding the ashes on a long pole. This allows you to get the container close to the water and away from the hull, so that when you dump the ashes, they have less chance of blowing up and back over the ship/boat, as there tend to be odd wind currents around a hull.

allowed in San Francisco Bay. I was not aware of any significants restriction on navigable water (probably prohibited in Richardson Bay? That's an NDZ). NDZ applies ONLY to toilet waste. So as long as I don't flush my beloved Aunt Marge through the Lectra-San, I'm cool? ;-D |

I am thinking of bagpipes, dixeland band and scatter ashes at sea. I have a friend here in Vancouver who charters now & then. A few years back a lady asked Doug to take them out to scatter her dad's ashes. As she went to write the cheque, he said you might want to know the name of my boat .... "Sea U Later" . She laughed and said that would be fine. -- Danny Aldham Providing Certified Internetworking Solutions to Business www.postino.com E-Mail, Web Servers, Security, Web Databases, SQL PHP & Perl |

Sorry to hear about your friend Richard. When my mother passed, I
scattered some of her remains in her beloved St. Johns River. The remainder in the Atlantic. To her favorite music, Wayne Newton's "Gentle on my Mind." She was a marine biologist. Anyone in the Jacksonville, Florida area needing assistance with scattering some ashes is welcome to contact me. Capt.
