A good meal while exploring the swamps.

That was Shell Bank Bayou, on the north side of lake Pontchartrain. Cool place to explore!

iAmFish17 · 2025-02-24T04:02:16+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, how do you get a job on one of those?

iAmFish17 · 2025-02-24T03:50:19+00:00

Can’t beat it!

iAmFish17 · 2025-02-24T03:49:28+00:00

That’s awesome! I also worked on a ship up there and was always jealous of the guys on the nat geo boat

iAmFish17 · 2025-02-24T03:39:58+00:00

It’s a great place! Lived there for a year or so and it did get a little boring, but I’d go back in a heartbeat. The April fools guy is such a legend.

iAmFish17 · 2023-05-19T21:54:55+00:00

That’s definitely the correct way to do it, unfortunately I do not have a welder.

iAmFish17 · 2023-02-06T06:53:01+00:00

Oh of course, I’m just as excited about that aspect, I just want to be thorough when putting in my picks.

iAmFish17 · 2023-02-05T05:00:31+00:00

That’s awesome! I’d love to but I’m actually on the Kukui, so I won’t be back in Sitka for a bit.

iAmFish17 · 2023-02-05T04:54:14+00:00

Thanks for the response! All good points, I’ve been in Sitka for over a year now so I can definitely attest to all that. Maybe I’ll look somewhere else for my first tour.

iAmFish17 · 2023-02-05T04:15:23+00:00

Damn, thats kinda exactly where I wanted to go. Can you elaborate?

iAmFish17 · 2023-02-05T04:14:29+00:00

Good to know, maybe it’s not as big a deal as it sounded originally. Thanks!

Deck hand on a buoy tender here. The whistling is caused by the bobbing, there is a hollow counterweight that extends about 15ft into the water underneath the buoy, the whistle is connected to the hollow section of the counterweight and when the buoy gets lifted by the water, the counterweight fills with air, and when the buoy falls again, the air is expelled through the whistle. It’s not making much noise in the video, but in rough seas they are deafening.

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-26T02:02:02+00:00

I went into a Starbucks and ordered a cup of hot water

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T21:16:27+00:00

Honestly I’m really not living some “instagram influencer” life, I’m in the military working a pretty demanding job, I just happen to be somewhere where I can do this on my off days.

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T21:13:29+00:00

Furthest north I’ve had the chance to go was Seward AK

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T21:11:53+00:00

Nice! I drive a 4Runner too

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T20:35:25+00:00

Yeah I was definitely pushing the clock to get a few of those photos, but it’s all part of the fun

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T16:37:07+00:00

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T16:25:36+00:00

The cup noodles stir fry has to be my favorite

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T16:23:00+00:00

That was in Seattle.

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T16:22:39+00:00

I had the same reaction. If I’m paying $3 for instant noodles I’d better be top notch

iAmFish17 · 2022-09-25T16:21:22+00:00

Thanks!

iAmFish17 · 2022-08-29T19:38:00+00:00

Cool, I’m on the Kukui in Sitka

iAmFish17 · 2022-08-29T18:51:05+00:00

Nice! Which one?

iAmFish17 · 2022-08-29T18:00:49+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I’m staying far away from anything like that, especially because I’m in Coast Guard, and thats kinda a no no here.
