Who did away with him? Did you take a picture of the picture at the
seamans club?

Pictures of that
monster still posted above the cash register in the Seamans Club.

No, they have them up to high and I couldn't talk them into doing a xerox
for sale either. Made a $25 offer for the three photos. The one's where
Hector has half swallowed the 8' shark someone had hooked. BIOT Fisheries
did the deed!






What kind of Radar Micheal? I need a cable for a Raytheon 10X


Nah it was a Goldstar product.


Old Salt!!!!!!!!! Looked in the mirror lately?

Hey now! I haven't been mid ocean for a few years now. You a golden
shellback yet?


Nope I've got both certificates several times over but never the two at the
same time. Did get promoted though. Royal Baby to Royal Barber and this
time made King Neptune! We are one of the few ships that does it officially
with all the trimmings (except the mean stuff of course).

Couple of people refused but then we did it again on the way North so
everyone ended up Shellbacks finally.

Golly Gee how many times has it been? Over the years....... more than I
want to account for I'm sure. But that Golden SB still eludes me .. . .
something to look forward too still! I'm thinking maybe . .. Golden
Singlehand Shell Back? Then I can do all the parts!

Check out the group and I'll bet the oldest one of us is Ole Thom . . ..
ten to one on that bet!
