Gitchee Gumee ... it's just fun to say!


There ain't, in my opinion, many things in this world better than being at sea in rough water to make you appreciate the power of the sea and the fact that she will take what she wants. When the ship is rolling enough that you're walking on bulkheads, or if you're on deck and have to lo UP at the water outside the ship, it's fun as anything, but very sobering, too, because you know that tiny steel box you're riding in is your entire lifeline. If it goes down, or you go over, you're just... gone.
