Went out on the ocean on a friend's Gulfstar 39 on Monday, about an eight-hour round trip. Sailed out and rounded an oil tanker anchored about five miles offshore. Them motherfuckers is WIDE. Seas were typical for this time of year, not more than two feet or so. Fun day.Originally Posted by n2ize

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
When you get out in the main drag, do you see much aqua life? Seems like the sharks are a bit more active than years past. Do much fishing?

I do fish here in the harbor and off the breakwater, catch and release.
Didn’t see any wildlife at all out in the ocean but, man, is there ever a lot of big ship traffic out there. As well as at least four huge oil tankers, there were numerous warships—two CVs, an Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer like the one that was involved in the collision off of Japan and one of these things:
An FSF-1 Seafighter, one of the Navy’s new experimental class of littoral combat ships.
