Been there, doing deliveries. Hours of suffering through a two-person routine of watch-on / watch-off, waiting wakefully for the shouted reminder from up top, "Hey, it's your watch!" That's when my thoughts turned to heated and air-conditioned pilothouse trawler-style yachts, which as established above, still can't assure a restful offshore passage. If I have to cross big water, I make no calendar-related plans and disregard anyone else's deadlines. It's all about waiting for the weather. Unfortunately, delivery crews don't always have that luxury - they get paid to make trips no one else wants to make, for a good reason!
