I finally worked out how to put a photo on here:rolleyes:
The lad is my nephew's son, visiting us from the USA.
The photo was taken in Auckland Harbour NZ.
This was my first time steering my brother's yacht. Only thing I didn't like about it, was no brakes! ;)

Cheers Enjoynz

When I work at a marina renting Jet Skis to tourists (I know, I am my own job security :rolleyes:), I instruct them like this, "these things have no brakes. The only thing that will stop you is time, distance, and another object. We really prefer time and distance over an object. However, if you feel that an object would best stop you, please know that the nearest Trauma Center is in Atlantic City, a helicopter is expensive, and you will be buying the marina a new PWC. Any questions?"

Usually works. We always get a couple smackasses who want to test my knowledge of area trauma centers. I always win. :ph34r:

Speaking from experience there sailor!;)

BLSBoy:
I think I'll stick to something with 4 wheels and pedals. Was a nice day out though. Not everyday you are asked to steer a 59 foot yacht for an hour or so.
It was the large amount of jet boats, other yachts, and large ships about, that had this land lover a little worried.......:blush:

Nice pic. In your training you list PC2 is that Police Constable 2nd class or is it short for something else.

Thanks.:)
No, PC2 stands for Primary Care 2...It's not the same as Primary Care in
Canada though. More a cross between Medical First Responder and Basic EMT, I guess.
Up until recently, it was the first level you could man the ambulance.

You look very similar to a guy my husband used to work with. They say everyone has a twin. On a side note, the monkey.... kudos to you, I would have run screaming like a girl in the opposite direction.
