There is no sleep like the sleep you get when you are underway, plus my boat was almost 50/50 with females.

I bet we could tell a load of sea stories.

Most of mine start with..."this one time we pulled into port and I started drinking tequila and......." that is pretty much the end of my memory. I do still miss it. That is why I took a job where I can travel. It keeps me from being bored.

<shaking my head> Coasties and Skimmers... you want sea stories talk to a bubblehead... and remember if it don't start with "Now this is a no shitter..." it isn't a real sea story.

You know the difference between a sea story and a fairy tale..... A fairy tale starts once upon a time and a sea story starts with "No Shit.... "
