It’s a shame that often when we’re going through something we don’t take the time to realize how incredible of an experience it actually is. You should look into trying to get back on the water somehow. A cruise ship is to calm for what you like it would have to be something else, unless you went at the peak of hurricane season. Then you would have to be ready to go as you watch the weather, they try to cruise around storms but in open water you don't need to be close to have big waves. But there no safer boats that I know of than the Coast Guard boats, considering how they are operated mostly, and they have some cool designs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted April 8, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 8, 2018 That was a different time, and you had a good reason. But that would be a great job, hate to rub it but that is a cool job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted April 8, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 8, 2018 Sounds good, can we at least taste one whale, I do like sushi, just in case I want to jump on the other ship I need to know if it's good ? If it's good can bringing a whale home be considered saving it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy was Senior Vice President at one of the Cruise Lines (I think he retired because i sent him an email and it was retuned undeliverable). But, when i retired from the Coast Guard, he called and offered me a sweet job at Princess. I would have been traveling the world, meeting the ships and riding along while doing inspections. Heavy world-wide travel and I was married at the time, and still hoping to fix the marriage. I figured that being away from home that much wouldn’t be a good idea, so i turned it down ... and another offer a year or so later. He stopped asking after two rejections. Now, looking back, i wish i would have took the job. I think that after he saw you dock one he decided otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
