You definitely need a paramedic aboard! Someone might get a splinter that needs surgical removal! That and I can tend the bar! :mrgreen:

Just finished 16 weeks at the Sheriffs Academy, I will have a 12 guage on board, with plenty of one ounce slugs and 00 buck. Between you and me, we'll go down fighting!

I would sell the dam thing take the money and move to the BVI. Actually I would consider Neil Youngs old boat Ragland. I think she is only selling for around $700,000

Most likely will look for a good used catamaran 38 foot minimum, budget around 250K, update electronics to handle telemetry and communications from my magic device in my chest, and the rest for expenses.

"I" am the RN on board ... I can take out spilnters, know everything about CPR (with, or without mouth-to-mouth breathing :D ), I know everything about "peacemakers" and am very willing to learn everything about telemetry :D ...
plus I can cook (not that bad), I can dance, I can sing, I can do my watches, I can scuba dive and I have good references ...
in short:
I'm the perfect crew :D ...

ps: at least let me have my fun here at home behind my laptop :D ...

Throughout this entire thread, I have not seen a reference to MY speciality. I hereby apply for the position of excess cargo. I promise to just sit around , eat the fine meals prepared by others and drink the beer, which is no problem since I won't stand watches.
I also will skritch the other non-watch stander[four legged type] behind the ears as required.

When may I expect the first class ticket to the launch point ?. :mrgreen:

WHOOPS: Almost forgot. Kerry must be part of the crew so I may receive a twice weekly massage. Otherwise it will be a no go for me.

George can tag along for the required repairs nessary on such a trip.

I can do that too, Rich :D ...

and p.s. again: no need for a first class ticket for me, economy will do :D ...
oh, forgot to mention that (without smelling that bad) I can do without a shower/hairwash for some time, as long I have my baby wipes :D :D ...

Hell... Nurses, bartenders, excess cargo!!

You guys seem to have forgotten about havin' a boat builder onboard... Hell... who you gonna have cussin' at the boat when she gets into trouble?!!? Might be a need for a semi-professional (drinks from time to time), opionated, cussin' boatbuilder might be just the thing, but wonder where could find one of those...

We'll have to charter a cruise ship the way the crewlist is growing! Anya is the


chief nurse and cook. Warning you, I've been a nurse (er-critical care) since 77 when I was in the military. I can be a real pain in the *** patient!

Anya, you forgot one thing. You are one hell of a saleswoman. I hope you are chosen.

How about a guy who eats too much thus needs a cardiologist and has frequent run-ins with the law....... just throwing it out there.... 8)

Okay, so you got 7 or 8 lats and atts party animals and an old fart or two on a boat for maybe 120 days, how much is the daily budget for such a group?
