It was a nice break from the normal. Long in short, I was on one of the ship's RHIBs or Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat out in open water. It was a lot of fun. Anyway, that's the Mustin in the background.
The blue thing I had on was my lifejacket. It's pretty cool because it's self-inflating once it comes in contact with the water. I had to go out on the RHIB for one of my quals anyway, so it just worked out that I had a blast.
Yes, really cool picture, wish we could get more. Danny certainly looks happy.
ReplyDeleteThanks,

Yes, he does look happy but I know he is stressed beyond belief!

ReplyDeleteYikes! I hope he had a lifejacket on. All that open water scares the pants off of me. Of course after ten feet I would poop out and drowned.
ReplyDeleteThe Snyder's made me watch a movie about the Coast Guard and it was so scary I had nightmares about it for a week.
cluck cluck, yes I am chicken!

ReplyDeleteGreat picture! Thanks. Jim will be interested to see the ship. He enjoyed his Navy years.
