You can stop searching now...

Sorry. I know you feel badly, but you're forgiven."


You're an amusing old farts I must say.
While you squabbled in here the wife and I took neighbours out in the Bayliner this afternoon for a harbour and North West Arm tour. Overtook HMCS Windsor as it steamed up the harbour on it's way back to the dockyard. It just arrived back from Norway where it participated in NATO exercises. BTW..it's a submarine.
On the local news tv cameras caught my boat scooting past the sub's stern as it turned into the dockyard to a big welcome home from the crew's families.


I'm glad you stopped looking.

Next time make up some **** you can support.

You are lucky you and your crew weren't blown out of the water.
Navies are very protevtive of their subs.

You're such a drama queen, Justine.
These guys are in their home port and happy to be home after a two month deployment. Way back in the '80s, when I had a small mini cruiser sailboat at a local navy base, I came up near the picket barrier set up around a 'merican nuke sub..and did have a Popeye type guy come out heavily armed to scare us off.
We Canadians are a bit more hospitable than that...but then again we don't roam the world's oceans throwing our weight around.
BTW they did have two or three big RIBS with numerous swabbies aboard accompanying the sub. Wife took a picture but it was on her basic LG smartphone.


That photo should be simple to upload.
