Good Morning! Email, fleet wide at MSC has been dead since 10/2, which just validates everything that you have ever heard about MSC! I am right on track though, having collected 1,089 sea days so far on vessels over 10,000 tons at MSC. This puts me at the majic number to sit for my next license. It took me 1,341 days to get this sea time, which I feel is pretty efficient at just over 80%. It was great to meet your crew in September! What a nice break from the usual ruffians on my ship! Thanks for bringing out a crowd on a week night! Best Wishes, Matt
Have a look at "the winter term" in switzerland for Sam great program. Also the tall ships site has some great opportunities on it and can help tyhere. Off to st marks this weekend to see the boys - take care,
Swabby rainy day on the Island - how are things? Jonathan had a great trip on the spirit and Stephen just came back off the Spirit of Bermuda. Hope you are having a great summer and see you soon,
Swabby
just keep the Chimes in Maine. Ski winters.
Carl eye. passed away a few years back.
I remember having to retrieve a few folks of the cliffs in Somes sound. Was that you?
Those were great years. Found memories. Come for a visit or better yet a sail. We should try and get some T Boy alumni trips on the Chimes.

I think that was the same summer that Carl Aye was arrested in P-Town when we were leaving a bar where the pot smoke was thicker than the fog and there were guitars blasting form both sides of the street! Carl bent over and asked the cop to replace what he took! Ha!
We had to row all the way out to the schooner and try and break into the safe... which we couldn't figure out.
Yeah, it was an amazing summer.
Rob,
The summer with you, Ted, G.Lover, Cap, and of course Carleye was one of the very best summers of my life. I probably have more memories from that summer than any other. That was a good crew. Do you remember the “What pray tell is a Ring-Dang-Do” song? “Carleye, come back to the schooner, your groupies are here”.
R,
Jamie
Rob,
Hah, hah, hah ... hair, yah I get it. I'm going to unleash the wrecking crew on you, TABOR BOY stile. It is funny to look at the old shots and appearances through the years.
How are you doing? John Lincoln called last night out of the blue and it was great to catch up with him. He finally has a permanent chief gig now and is doing great.
Best,
Jamie

Belive it or not, my 16 year old son is into Climbing. New Bedford has the largest indoor climbing center in the US and we go there regurlerly so he can climb, I just belay him, no climbing for this dirtball.
Cheers
Aye. rrrrrrrrrrrr matey! Still have to dig up photos of the cliff fiasco, taken by Carl, lost by me somewhere in my attic. They will turn up. Same day, Jamie bleached the decks (and a bunch of other stuff), and I have photos of that, too.
Hi Jamie,
I have a bunch! The one I have in my hand right now is of you standing on the bowsprit (and you had hair)! I think Percy or Werbel is in the background climbing up the ratlns on the main mast. Maybe 2 dozen picts or so. I just need a scanner to post them.
Talk to you later,
Rob
Rob,
Welcome aboard! I'm sure that you have more photos from all of your time aboard. Get them posted; I'd love to see them!
I hope that you are well and that we cross paths sometime,
Jamie

We will miss you this weekend. I'll be sure to leave a cup of coffee at Cap's grave for you!

What's your email address. John Werbel and I both would like it. BTW, mine is still james.hutton@noaa.gov
One cool trick is to use the "comment back" button on the bottom of the comment box. It sends the reply to the other guy’s page.
Also, send this onto Sarah so that she can join and post pictures.
Forgot to say, Twomey Dog keeps in pretty good touch too. He's out sailing as an AB for MSC. You should drop him a note via his page.
