do you guys get to sail in mob boats? I got to when I was with an oil tanker in Norway. Nice pics btw, looks like you are having a great time there.

Yes, testing the MOB boat and free fall boat are one of the most populair jobs on the monthly job list :D


It's not exactly a fast rescue boat, but it sure is fun  ;D

Hi Ballast.

Are you coming to the Solent on this trip? If so, please give me an ETA and I'll see if I can get out to meet you.

Not sure if we visit the Solent this trip. We'll be happy if we get any trip :-\

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys  :) Sure did had :P b-day party on board!


I'm currently in Stade, near Hamburg in Germany.


Taking over some spray in the German bight. Suprised to see how fast everybody gets used to nice weather. Plenty of rolling cans and other stuff that's not properly stowed  :P


Dirty jobs with Ballast Rowe  8)


This is why i like sailing on the English coast  ;D


Cover photo of my essay about voyage planning. How corny  :D


Easy life, seen from the aft mast.


Sailing backwards on the river Tees.


...everything you say can and will be used against you...  :-\

hey, thx for that nice look inside that ships could be possible that i saw you in Kiel-canal hehe

You might get a second chance! currently awaiting cargo in the port of Rotterdam area. ETA Brunsbuttel somewhere the 30th, bound for Lithuania and Russia. You might be able to follow us on the many free AIS websites.

If you have time, can you make a picture?
