Oh, you get to go out and take Photos.

Back to Work!

It’s a Beautiful Day!

From Adam Bolonsky:

Does anyone on the waterfront have 600′ to 800′ of used tuna mono or swordfish line they need to get rid of?

I’m working with the

Thachers Island Association and the National Fish and Wildlife Service to suspend a videocamera from the catwalk of the 102′ north lighthouse tower at Thachers, and need the line to raise and lower the camera.

Vids get submitted to GMG, of course!

Ed Collard is already on board. He made a mount for the camera. Now w need non-braided, non-stretch line to raise and lower the video camera.

No-braid line is the key: otherwise the camera will vibrate excessively.

Contact me through GMG or via email

Thanks, Adam

It flew over the greasy pole and headed for good harbor beach. his friends thought it was cool. They said Paul wanted the balloon.

Plan B Fishing Vessel Gloucester Harbor 2009

Here are links to the dozens of posts and videos we’ve taken of The Plan B here on Good Morning Gloucester over the years

2 Crewman Rescued

BOSTON — The Coast Guard assisted two fishermen after their fishing vessel began to take on water nine miles east Kennebunkport, Maine, Tuesday.

Watchstanders at Coast Guard Sector Northern New England received a call at 7:20 a.m. from the 81-foot fishing vessel Plan B reporting that they were taking on water and pumps were unable to keep up with the flooding. The men were donning survival suits.

The Coast Guard immediately launched an Air Station Cape Cod MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew, a Coast Guard Station Portsmouth Harbor, N.H., rescue boat crew, a Coast Guard Station South Portland, Maine, rescue boat crew, and diverted the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Tahoma. The Coast Guard also issued an urgent marine information broadcast asking boaters in the area to assist the fishermen.

The crew of the fishing vessel Cameran Lee responded to the UMIB and safely transferred the two fishermen from the Plan B to their vessel.

Weather on scene was 10 to 15-knot winds and two-foot seas.

The Tahoma and Station South Portland are currently on scene monitoring the situation.

“This rescue highlights the importance of communication in an already hazardous environment,” said Lt. Nick Barrow, command center supervisor at Sector Northern New England. “The value of good Samaritans in our tight-knit community is invaluable.”

The Coast Guard protects roughly 20,000 commercial fishing vessels in the northeastern U.S. and encourages fleets to prepare for the unexpected as the season continues.

The Plan B is still afloat and crews are arranging commercial salvage. There were no injuries or pollution reported.

Deb Clarke;

This is a painting that I started several years ago, and have not finished. The painting is in the attic. why did I stop working on it? I have misplaced the background fish that is the shadow wall for the verre eglomise.

someday I will finish this work. btw: some of the white areas is paint, other white areas is aluminum leaf, other white areas is where the light shows through from behind, other white areas is the surface light reflection.

best

When he kicked the Treadmill speed up to 5mph I had to leave his Class. Too fast for me.
