DocF225 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I was taking the evil puppy to the river for a swim to burn off some of his energy and happened to spy my former place of employment. The "Pride of the Hudson" is an 88' dinner cruiser that plys the Hudson River between Westchester County and Dutchess County. Looks like it was on a regular sight-seeing run (no wedding type decorations visible). For three years I was Deck Boss/Second Officer until the owners kid took over the operation and became a raging tool to work for. Doc Wiseman - Ship's Physician, Stur.. er...

DocF225 Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 raging tool must have an unlimited fender budget. wonder how often they are actually brought aboard. Why, he's a graduate of the Merchant Marine Academy and there ain't nuthin he don't know bout drivin a boat. Or so he thinks. We used to use two fenders, one fore and one aft which came up right after leaving the dock and went back down right before docking. Doc Wiseman - Ship's Physician, Stur.. er...
