Weekly Wrap-up

Pete Andrews - Friday, June 05, 2009

After my lucky and efficient Saturday, my week slowed a bit. I did just one job on Sunday, the center console shown below, picked up on the north side of Patience Island and towed to New England Boatworks at about 21 knots. Trainee Captain Miller (aka Unit 14) was at the controls. You can see him plotting his course in the second picture below.

I handled a 42' Catalina disabled in Point Judith Pond on Monday (no picture, sorry). She had just launched and was heading to her summer berth in Jamestown, but only got as far as The Narrows. She went back to Ram Point Marina at the head of the pond.

My last job of the week was on Wednesday, bright and early. It was a 24' Romarine about 1 nautical mile west of the West Gap of the Point Judith Harbor of Refuge. She went back to the State Pier in Gallilee. That's her on the string below. I'm headed to Georgia for a wedding starting today, so this will be my last post until next week. Have a great boating weekend!
