The Qualified Captain

What ever happened to that big boat that they were trying to move, was it a Chriscraft?
 
I love it!

The Sea Note is parked in a boat yard 3 miles east of where it was stuck on the boat ramp last winter. Major hull damage, I’m guessing it will never be on the water again.
 
Thought you guys up north would get a kick outta this.

We find ourselves pushing through ice on occasion. Not at the level this guy is but ice none the less. It has never left a mark on the gelcoat.
What worries me when having to do so is the wood and other debris that you can't see suspended under it.
On the coast up here, there is a lot of fresh water dumping in. It takes a bit to mix with the saltwater so lays on the surface until it does. It will start to freeze at about -2 C in the back of the longer channels. Eary feeling waking up on the hook and the boat is absolutely motionless.
 
Glad to see that USCG has added to their icebreaker fleet. They need some more ships in that department.
