If it ain't about boats, it should go here.

Two interesting things about getting a job with Jensen/Crowley is that Jensen designed one of the first house aft crab boats, the Billikin (she is sometimes seen on "Deadliest Catch") and the family yard built her and I worked in, on, under and around her while she was under construction in 1973. A few years later the yard worked on converting a 400 ft rail barge into an oil exploration rig, the Brinkerhoff I which Crowley was a partner in. I rigged crane on that one.

Congratulations Joe- I think fishing boats will be more fun too. Now that I am trying retirement I'm really working hard at just what Jamie described- making sure that I use this time to my full satisfaction. Otherwise I might as well be working:-)
