It looks like I dodged a bullet today and I will not have to be posting anything remotely connected to the “Whale Poo” story that I brought to Greg for today’s show ( World of Boating 4-24-10 HOUR1 World of Boating 4-24-10 HOUR2). How did I accomplish this amazing feat? Well, usually I can distract Greg with a LiteBrite set that he believes is a new type of laptop from Apple or shadow puppets but today was destined to be different. I told him I was ready to post the World Premiere of “Travel Lift Time Machine” and he had absolutely no idea of what I was talking about despite the six emails, eight texts, and candygram that I sent him in reference to the video. I know he was on an emotional high having just come back from the Keys with Single Scott from the ScubaRadio Show. It seems while he was down there he was able to dive for treasure at the Atocha wreck site and there was also his version of the Old Man and the Sea, something about a world record fish that he hooked and he could tell it was a record fish by the way the pole was bending over(!) and lo’ and behold at the last minute, just as he was ready to boat the fish, a bigger fish which according to Greg may have been a Great Hammerhead Shark, Tiger Shark, or Great White Shark, came along and bit his catch literally in half but he was happy about that as apparently the part of his catch that was bitten off was the “wormy” part so he figured it would save him time in having to clean his catch. He is definitely a ”the half of the fish that didn’t get eaten by a larger predator is the best part of the fish” type of guy and thankfully the “Whale Poo” story quickly faded from his memory.

  But now I was stuck as I told him the video was ready and of course when I got home it was one technical glitch after another. I finally got the video edited and the music added but then Word Press would not let me upload the video file. So I have posted it to YouTube and I have provided the link below. It is a quirky and unique view of a yacht being brought into a travel lift bay, lifted out of the water and brought over into the boatyard. The marinas have this “thing” about people riding in the boats when they are being moved by the travel lift and by “thing” I mean that they don’t allow it at all so I set the camera up and let it run and I truly hope that you, the readers of this post, enjoy the view of a boat getting moved around while suspended in the air by two large straps. If not, blame Greg and email him and tell him you want more mammal sex, whale poo, and boobs and I am sure he will comply with your wishes which in essence means he will tell me to scour the internet for those stories so he can then have me post them on my Captain’s Log.
