Actually a really cool town. on the verge of old and new. Saw you were in Phuket for the holidays, its an interesting island in Patong, stayed in a cheap danish hotel in Kata, rented an r6 for the week, cleaner water down there and less craziness
Been working, boats got a lot going on, shot down to the keys for 4 days New Years, don't check the beeb every hour or day on the water, Owner decided he wants to go fishing, flying his plane in Saturday, even though the big boat is getting worked on, we are in Ft. Lauderdale, we have a 34' Regulator center console so just been spending the last 3 days loading up with kite fishing gear and getting everything ready to fish South Florida for 4 days. A lot different than fishing the Bahamas, you need to downsize everything
Need a 50 year old deck hand any where or a delivery crew member? Would love to get back on the water. I can tie knots 'n shit. Plus had a US Merchant Marine Z card two decades ago. I should have logged the time on the tugs towards a license. The captain let me run and occasionally work the controls on this one when I was in college -- http://www.tugboatinformation.com/tug.cfm?id=504.
