Subscribe to RSS FeedI've decided to just pick out a couple of jobs for posting from last week to complete my catch-up since the 4th. This is one from July 7, a 53' motoryacht that was OOF (out of fuel) off Weekapaug, 10 nautical miles west of Point Judith. It was a little sloppy with about about a 2-4 foot confused seaway; just enough to be annoying. The view on-scene is below.
Of course it was another of our famous (at least this year anyway) "unsettled" weather days, and this lovely line of boomers was bearing down on us (I was at the tip of the white arrow). Severe weather warnings were posted for possible "winds in excess of 40mph," so I buttoned up and prepared to ride out a potentially nasty few minutes. However, by the time the line reached us, it had dissipated a bit and just brought a bunch of rain.
The rest of the job proceeded without incident, and below is the casualty on a short leash inside Point Judith Pond, headed for the fuel dock.
