Deadliest Catch Gloucester Fundraiser Update!
Hey Joey –
Just wanted to update you and the GMG readers about Monday’s fundraiser to benefit Gloucester Little League featuring Andy & Jonathan Hillstrand from the Time Bandit.
My phone is ringing off the hook today with people calling looking to see if we still have tickets. The calls are coming from all over Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Maine. The event was covered in the Herald today and we expect a feature story in The Beacon tomorrow. I am hopeful that this event will be a sell-out, as was last year’s event featuring Sig Hansen.
People from “over the bridge” will have to buy their tickets at the door or come to Gloucester to get the tickets in advance. Locals who want to attend the event should purchase their tickets at Jeff’s Variety in the next few days to assure that are guaranteed admission to the event.
Looking forward to seeing everybody there for a fun evening.
Kristin

Where Zat? Video with Prize!
Uh…this video is just about the worst I’ve ever seen, but you’ll get the key points. If you know this Where Zat?, it won’t matter that you get motion sickness watching it. Good luck! And next time I’ll use my Flip instead of my iPhone! Or at least I’ll hold the camera horizontal instead of diagonally!
Clue: This is in Gloucester (not downtown), definitely off the beaten path.
You win a great CD of Kitt Cox’s music if you’re the first person to identify this location! Thank you, Kitt!
Whoops! I forgot to anounce last week’s winner! Watch for it at 4:00 this afternoon.

Virgilio’s Sausage Parm Sandwich
I’m gonna say it straight out- for the very best sub roll in the entire universe it’s Virgilio’s. I love my Sclafani’s sandwiches and bread and all but if you are just talking sub roll Virgilio’s sub rolls are just incredible. Every sub shop in America should be using them if they care about having the best. It’s not even open to debate. They are light and soft on the inside and just the right texture on the outside, complimenting whatever meat you throw in there.
Look for my interview at Virgilio’s at 8AM

Rose’s Marine Shop
The morning before last one of our pumps that keep salt water flowing to the lobster tanks shit the bed. It’s great to have places like Rose’s Marine where you know you can go and get what you need in marine industrial applications.
Rose’s Marine Shop, originally uploaded by captjoe06.
We use pacer pumps because the housings and impellers are made from hard plastic and are not prone to corrosion the way the old cast iron pumps were. Rose’s had the pump in stock and set up with a three phase motor ready to swap right out for us.
While there I talked to Marty and Frank. Marty had Frank come right over to our dock to get some measurements for a new intake with footvalves. Within an hour Frank had a whole new foot valve put together and clamped to teh hose and we were back in business.
You can’t begin to imagine what a resource a place like Rose’s is in our town and how they keep the wheels spinning. Without the knowledgeable and friendly staff our town wouldn’t be nearly as accommodating to visiting vessels and home port vessels alike.
