Wind

oh yes. thats what im talking about. very nice in a maersk big ship. sadly i have yet to actually witness these seas, not had a storm in a long time.

 

closest i have is going out of the harbour entrance and finding a "hole".

 

i have sat in the trough on the lifeboat and its not a nice place to sit, the sideways motion really tries to throw you off your feet.

 

on xmass eve we had a shout and were in the trough i truely felt sick but still done the task and got home.

 

i hope that everyone stays safe on monday, tree surgeons and seaman alike.

 

remember lads that tree is not worth your life.

 

HI RICH are you still on call mate stay safe like you said rich it not worth getting killed for stay safe all jon

Balls to the bark for my crews. Unless theres lightning we will be in the trees.

 

 

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
