Things learned about vessel/barge: Nothing new.

Classroom information application(s):  None applicable.

Supplemental Information: The steersman has been assigned to another boat out in Sulfur, LA and leaves tomorrow, meaning it will be just me and the captain until further notice. What an exciting end to this summer internship…
