Andrea Gail crew photos at Crow’s Nest

Febuary 7th 2009

drove from Portland to Gloucester tonight, every Febuary for 18 years since 1991,   1984 was around my first time taking out fish at STAR fisheries ,GUS

OFTEN I COME TO THE OLDEST SEA PORT IN NORTH AMERICA.

WENT TO THE CROW’S NEST , get the usual    two  hats   two beers  . one for each

person that might accompany me ,in our travels,

looked at the wall from my usual corner perch at the bar ,close to the door.

she noticed they changed the front  windows. i knew ,she hadn’t been there in years.

the old key board for the rooms upstairs hasn’t changed since the crew of the Andrea

Gail left in September 1991 ,

the  old   key board   . guess you  would  have to see it , to know what i’m talking about

she  does paranormal.  sitting at the bar , said she was getting  feelings  ,

what she  does, going to have to talk to her again.  IT HAS HISTORY surely

Crow’s nest   restless spirits ?

    WHEN I WAS YOUNG I TOOK FISHING FOR A JOKE BUT WHEN I SAW THE PERFECT STORM THEN LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET, HOW FISHING CAN TAKE YOUR LIFE I TOOK IT VERY SERIOUS THESE MEN RISK THEIR LIFE FOR THE JOB THEY LOVED TO SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES THEREFORE I HAVE NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR FISHER MEN AND US COST GUARDS WHO RISK THEIR LIFE TO SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES.
    TYNE WAS A DAMN GOOD SKIPPER FROM WHAT READ. AND HAD A VERY DEDICATED CREW
    THAT’S THE KIND OF PERSON I WANT TO BE.
