I wish you success in your career also. Cheer Tim. Hi Andres, don’t worry too much about messing up, I made plenty of mistakes as a cadet, and not all of them on the ship!

Chris, it has been a while since I have been down in those waters, I am reminded of a mate who fell asleep on watch in the Yucatan channel, the old man caught him too, but that's another days story.
