Amusing VHF exchange
« on: June 22, 2011, 01:07:40 PM »
Amusing VHF exchange of the day, some 20 miles from the eastbound termination of the Singapore Strait: "All ships, I am towing a jack-up rig and am restricted in my ability to manoeuvre, please give me a 1 nm minimum CPA", which was replied to; "Message received, and good luck with that".
:-o ... :lol:

heheh, 1 nm in the singapore-strait, good one! I bet in the end they couldn't maintain even a CPA of a cable.
cheers,
Stefan
