I have never been on a ship that was underway.

It only hurt once, from beginning to end.

Peace means having a bigger stick then the other guy.

Loosing may do little to your credibility, but quitting will destroy it.

I will tell you it's not like being on a cruise ship.

Maybe someday you'll get the chance.

You want the SOC boat built by PBI. There's only one of those.

I have a video on VHS but there's no WEB link to show what it looks like. The only one in existence sits in Clearwater, FL. The boat outperformed with other SOC boats but the contracts people didn't want to pay the price. Long story short, it could carry two SEAL teams, plus gear, plus a crew of three at speed over 60 Kts to a range of 300 miles.

Ours was designed with 3 ex SEALS working with the engineers. It had everything the SEALS wanted. The Gov't just wouldn't buy it. BTW - It also fit in a C-5 aircraft.

It was neat to ride across Lake Michigan. Of course, at those speeds you had to be strapped in.

It was built by the shipyard I worked at in WI. I was the Director of Logistics and it was my job to insure all the materials to built and support the boat were purchased and the military was given training and technical support for 3 months after delivery.
