They hide in shame..

I'm sailing an Omega, guess that makes me not a landlubber

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #10 on:** May 26, 2010, 17:27:08 »

Whats an Omega?

Willmutt · « **Reply #11 on:** May 26, 2010, 17:32:12 »

Omega 30, it's a sailing boat made in the late 80s in Sweden.
Sails pretty well, but we may upgrade to a bigger and newer sailing boat soon which is more comfortable and sails a bit faster

Nice

Landlubby.

I like to see boats. I have only been one time on a ship.
Only experience i get is from Ship Sim.
And i hope that i can go on the Rainbow Warrior III. With the donation edition

Been photographing ships for over 20 years so I reckon I know a thing or two... have also sailed canal boats several times if that counts - and in 4 weeks time will be sailing a small cruiser down the river Shannon in Ireland!

DarkChestOfWonders · « **Reply #15 on:** May 26, 2010, 23:21:45 »

No wonder your nickname is Quaysider!

I've had very very very little experience on an actual ship, but I know a bit about how they work.

I'd say recreational...I've just finished my Day Skipper Course (6 month long course which runs over COLREGS, Chart work, Rules of the road, Buoyage etc. etc., I have been boating for a good few years with many different types of boats..I suppose you could say it's a 'hobby' that I take seriously but it's nothing professional (as yet), but I hope to make it that way soon!

Sam · « **Reply #19 on:** May 27, 2010, 15:29:04 »

I'm a student so I wouldn't call it professional yet.
But this summer holiday I am going on a freight ship for allmost two months.

Maybe I can say it after that experience.

saltydog · « **Reply #20 on:** May 27, 2010, 16:36:03 »

I have added "Semi-professional" to the poll, for the students..

A bit late, since I've already voted... $:-\$

Wave Music · « **Reply #22 on:** May 27, 2010, 17:26:46 »

SD, you better restart the votes so people can vote again with that new option.

clanky · « **Reply #23 on:** May 27, 2010, 17:30:17 »

Been at sea for 18 years and am the chief engineer of a 29,000 GT ro-ro ship so I guess that would put me in the professional bracket.

saltydog · « **Reply #24 on:** May 27, 2010, 18:06:47 »

Restarting the poll is not an option, we shall have to keep in mind that we have 3 students so far..

Poll

In terms of maritime experience, how do you rate..?
