Sea Sick !!!! Rumors and Scuttle Butt

21 October 2011 | Cambrige MD
Capt Jim
I just heard a rumor that some one of my land locked fans heard that the "Captain" was sea sick!!
For the advice of all you land lubbers the captain is not SEA Sick!! He has bilge problems -not upper deck issues!! However rest assured with correct treatments his bilge and overboard discharges are much better!
I have brought the two deck hands (photo included) safely across the waters of Chesapeake bay from St Michaels to the lovely back water town of Cambridge MD., In no way similar to the stuffy one near our home land of Massachusetts. There is schooner festival here, I have attempted to enroll Lady Lady n the competitive sailing events by clamming I left one mast home just to keep the competition even. I'm not sure if they will buy into that but it's my story and I'm sticking to it. Tomorrow I'll get some down home photos for the blog. Got to go more bilge work----bye for now.
