Well, when I got into tugs, it was my goal to find work in San Francisco Bay. This month, I met my goal at least for the short term. Our company landed a dredge job near Richmond, so I'm sitting down here for about a month moving dump skows daily. It's not the most glamorous life, but it's certainly nice being on the Bay and driving around the waterways that I know and love. I know the San Francisco Bay, having spent quite a few summers down here sailing and anchoring around as a kid as well as sailing with Tradewinds Sailing Club out of Richmond Marina a few years back. It brings back good memories and the weather has been excellent to say the least.
I'll be down here for a few more weeks, and then rotating out. The job is supposed to take about 3 months total.
If you don't know what a dump skow is, check out my video here:
I like to kill the time with photography and photo editing. Enjoy!
