29' of draft loaded.. big *itch.

Yeah Jimmy......costs money when you travel from the stem to the stern in a taxi cab on the dock....ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching....

She draws the exact same loaded or light.......as she unloads she pumps in ballast water and as she get loaded she pumps out ballast water... When she's totally pumped out and light she draws 3'......both giant props are out of the water.......

Going to a party at Barn Castle this afternoon to say Fair Well to a good friend.....Knob Creek will be a beverage of honor as it was Scotts favorite. Went back into my pics to find a couple to remember him by. He came out to the island to our wedding so that's where I searched......though it was but 5 years ago I was a bit taken back by the fact that were other beings that were not of this world anymore that were in attendance that day besides Scott. I never posted any pics of the wedding mostly because the very day that we were wed was the exact day that John fell ill and very nearly left us too. We were all so concerned about John our wedding more or less got lost. The pics I am about to post are from that beautiful day on the island to remember not only Scott be the others that have since "passed over the bar" as mariners call it. Couple of Scott....
