Why not just combine the two into one?

Put it in a tortilla and you've got yourself a buyer.

The combination of waves, ice cream and the smell of live bait seems like a horrific, bordering on evil enterprise to a landlubber with motion sickness issues like myself.

Add in diesel fumes and you probably found the perfect recipe for sea-sickness...

In reply to secretariata:

The only time I have ever been close to sea sick, was on a poorly tuned diesel sport-fisher, with too big props. There was a haze of black smoke flowing into the cockpit, for the 2 hours it took to get to the gulf stream. I was very nearly chumming for fish, by the time we got out there. Lucky for me the wind picked up and it wasn't a problem on the trip home.

So you're saying they could tuna fish but couldn't tune a diesel.

Sorry, I'll see myself out.

Congrats Cap'n.

Nice to have a second one on here. What parts of the Chesapeake were you running? Parts of it north of the bay bridge can get fun.

Ok as I sit here My Official certification came in the post today . I now have my Merchant Mariner Credential in hand (Captain License ). I cannot tell you how this feels as I know some of you may be in school and studying hard or have received a degree . I could say with a very happy heart how good it feels ! Never let your dreams out live you . Dreams can become reality some hard work and some support from your friends or family . No big deal just some sacrifice and you start to feel it . No reason not to pick up where you left off . Hippopotamus Head Paddle Board Company
