Rare Yellow Lobster and Other Mutant Lobsters We’ve Documented Down Here At Captain Joe and Sons Over The Years

Tune in to Diane Sawyer national news on channel 5 tonight at 6 for the story.
Here’s the yellow lobster Dave Jewell aboard the Lady J caught last week.
The lobster on the right obviously is the normal one. There are no bands on the yellow one because it was a female bearing eggs and only brought in to take pictures of.


Here’s a blue one from last December-

Here’s an albino one from last June

 

To see the ocean oddity slide show which I added some more blue shaded lobster, and quadruple clawed claws to you can click this text

Here’s a speckled cull we got back in May of 2009

Thachers Island Advection Fog Video From Adam Bolonsky

Thachers Island, Rockport: the best overnight deal in town. You can camp there for $5.00 per night.

But sometimes the advection fog moves in here fast and thick.
Here’s a video shot of launching a sea kayak from the island as the fog crept in from the northeast.

The Stacy House- Suite 502 Tour At Bass Rocks Ocean Inn

I grew up driving by the Bass Rocks Ocean Inn every day of my life.  Passing it on the way to school.  Not once had I ever stepped foot inside until day before yesterday.

You may have the same experience, but now you’ll be able to see inside for yourself through our lens.   Part II-

What the Heck is a Windlass?

What the Heck is a Windlass?

I never knew what one was until I viewed this video. I always thought it was probably one of the small sails on a Schooner. You learn something new everyday.

From the Youtube Description;

“What’s a windlass? The students from Cape Ann TV’s After-the-Beach Video Club visited the Gloucester Schooner Adventure on Tuesday, July 12, where some of the crew from the Schooner Adventure gave the students a tour of this historic sailing vessel, which is docked at the Marine Railway on Rocky Neck in Gloucester. Watch this short clip to find out about the ship’s newly restored windlass.”

TEKKA MARKET, LITTLE INDIA IN SINGAPORE video from Rick Macomber

I love this video for so many reasons.
First it’s so visually stunning. But then the way Rick Edited it not just visually, but the audio as well.
It is completely humbling and makes me realize I have so very very much to learn.
I’d be happy with 25 % of his video producing knowledge.
