06JUN2018

Location: Gulf of Mexico, South of Pensacola, FL enr to Tampa, FL;

Events: Spent the 1st watch helping the tankerman set up to acid wash the barge then got tagged by the chief to help him remove a damaged rail arm and set up do some welding during the 2nd shift. The chief and I got together and welded some chain links to the handrail section we worked on earlier early in the 2nd shift, allowing us to run a chain from one end to the other in place of the removed broken piece.

Things learned about vessel/barge: Nothing New.

Classroom information application(s): None Applicable.

Supplemental Information: Today was just another day on the water, hot and sunny with the occasional offshore shower. I gotta say, I’ve been pretty lucky with the weather and sea-states I’ve encountered on this boat.

Rules of the Road Scenarios? None observed.
