120 foot tug and two ferry’s seattle to Ecuador

I was hired to be the captain for this tug called the wycliffe.  The final mission was tow two ferry’s from Seattle to Ecuador.

Spent time doing sea trials with USCG and also took her over to the fuel dock to put on 20,000 gallons of fuel.

This deal fell through when troubles came up with my ticket, and hooking up the tug to the ferry’s.

It would have been an adventure for sure, but in hind sight kind of glad that it didn’t happen.

Relief captain position on a lord nelson tug

I was hired as a relief captain on this lord nelson tug for two months in New Jersey and in Montauk.

Captain said I was doing a fine job doing work on the boat, and keeping the first mate busy.
