Yo Don!
You can stop searching now...
You won't find anyplace that I've said I commanded an artillery unit. Sorry. I know you feel badly, but you're forgiven. |

You can stop searching now... "You won't find anyplace that I've said I commanded an artillery unit. 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. |

You are lucky you and your crew weren't blown out of the water. Navies are very protevtive of their subs. -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

If you get too close to a sub, expect to be met by some guys in an RIB with .50 up front and no sense of humor. There are lots of stories on the real boat board about guys who wanted a closer look at a nuke boat. |

Even at slow speed they throw a HUGE bow wave. When Mare Island was still open, we saw lots of sub traffic. Only time navy made me move was near San Rafael Bridge fishing, and a munitions ship was transiting. |

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.. |

DramaQueenJustan is filled with naval mystique, well, at least the part of him not filled with ****. It's certainly not a good idea to buzz a U.S. sub, but the last time I was in San Diego, I rented a little daysailer, and got very close to a couple of "berthed" subs whose props were shielded by camo netting. No one waved a gun at us. In fact, no one paid any attention to us. |
