Jimmy,

Are you that kid that was learning the ropes of the Anchor yesterday? Are you going to be a deckhand now?

yeah that was me, ive been a deckhand for a while its just i was never the main deck on a trip and never had to pull the anchor and now that im working twilights im going to be the only deck hand on the boat so i gotta learn how..................BTW that anchor is a fucking BITCH! a 100lb anchor with no pucker!

A big boat like that needs a big Anchor, be careful with that thing. One bad move and it can mess you up. It seems like it will get easier once you get your timing down. Seaforth got really lucky yesterday as they were headed for home and then got that huge boil right next to them. I will probably do some Friday or Thursday twilight trips starting next month.

John probably would have just kept working. He is the most intense and hardest working deckhand I have ever seen. I have been on the boat with him so many times and have never seen him fish. Does he like to fish?
