Nah, we dont go up the Tanana this season. This late we are in Koyuk and then heading to Savuunga on St. Lawrence Island and then a few coastal villages then haul out. The boss is thinking 2-3 weeks longer. But who knows.

Remembering the markers was tough. So I had to think of something to make it easy. Ya know the whole north south thing. Ive got a bud named walter that also rides bikes. So I went with " wally scooter needs weed" 

translation west or east stay south. north south stay west

I remember driving up the Merrimack river from Newburyport to Haverhill at 2AM back in the 70s after fishing the flats after dark. Just a spotlight looking for markers all the way. It took us about 3 hours and 50 beers to make it back. Good Times

The Merrimac and the Piscataquis can both be mean rivers.

So what are you actually doing?  Are you CAPTAIN of the boat, or are you just a deck-hand on an oil barge, delivering to outpost shithole Eskimo villages?

My position is AB Tankerman, this boat above my tonnage range for master, its one of the reasons Im working on it, so I can up my license level. My job is to oversee the discjarg of fuel to the villages' fuel farms and ensure no spills.

No, it takes sea time and then ypu have to be able to oass the USCG exam. The Naniq and her barge are classified as 1600ton so I will need as follows...

  • 500 GRT (46 CFR 10.421): 720 days with 360 on vessels over 50 GRT; 90 days as AB on vessels over 50 GRT while holding MMD with AB

  • 1600 GRT (46 CFR 10.416): 720 days with 360 on vessels over 100 GRT; 180 days as AB on vessels over 100 GRT while holding MMD with AB

No you idiot, learn to read in between handy's!! 720 is total days of sea time, of that 720, 360 must be... 90 must be... etc, etc. 

Understand now? However since the seasons here are short, 6-8mo for the year. the sea time works out to be about 18mo of calendar time.
