Yeah, that was it. The joke was the skipper from the Cornelia Marie was looking for a new truck...

That was the most dangerous practical joke I've ever seen.

First the hauling of the damn thing out to the grounds and having it in the way on the deck, then the hauling of the truck up from the bottom.

That power block was so straining. Any number of things could have gone wrong. I was cringing.

I was cringing about that brown crab fishery, too. That looks like a lot of fun [/sarc]. Lines criss-crossing the deck and the steel hooks flailing all over the place. Geeeez.

I liked when the skippers son (cornelia marie) charged a brand new flatscreen on dady's card for his stateroomlol thought that was going to be the first casualty this season.:the_finger:
