Sixteen fishing lines.
"Watcha usin'?"
"Snapper Wiggle Lure. Blue. You?"
"Worm on a hook."
"Gedouddahere.*"
It's a seismic sensing research ship, extremely stable, pulls seismic sensors behind it on those lines.

^Nice crew. See 2:13
Double-taked it when I spotted a picture of it. The ship. The crew member, too. >:D

Looks like a ship that had about 80 percent cut off the stern.

Seismic sensors.....right.....

Front fell off... and they made another ship out of it.

The Naval research office's RP FLIP, is arguably even weirder.

I didn't know we had Senators with GB accents. I knew we had a bunch of Sens and Reps with idiot accents, though.

I've read about that one before. Amazing ship. I'd love to go out on that one.

The first time I caught a video on that flip ship as it tipped up, I was thinking, "What's the matter with those guys? You've got life vests, jump, you idiots!"

Flimsy excuse, though, huh?

I seen gals with an ass like that. Dad called them "3 trippers," meaning if they had to haul ass, it would take 3 trips.
