I only get fat around the gut. Currently weigh 260. Should be 195-200 at the most. It’s a real struggle lately.
I am rounder than you... keep trying.

Fuckin' deckape
We tended to call everything above the waterline “topside” in the Navy even though the proper term should have been “deck” and “superstructure” .
It was for my own benefit if you needed a question answered. No worries.

The other blanket term was “Weather Decks”
If you parked the boat under a low bridge you could run around onto the road, change the lights and be gone before anyone noticed.

I wasn’t a Boatswain’s Mate. To an engineer I would be a Topsider though. Certainly supplemented the Foc’sle and UNREP line handlers with the deck gang plenty of times though.

That’s actually a good idea. I had not thought of that.
Well watch for traffic, people can’t drive for shit these days. The last thing you want is to be associated with an accident report that says you were run over while changing mast lights.
The deckape is bronk.
Weren't you an OS1?
GASP...

That's my dream - retire and sail. My significant other wants nothing to do with that unfortunately.
I want to travel aimlessly about the country on my bike, and stop in small towns and help people fix their problems. Fairly confident wife wants no part of that either
My wife would be more the type to wander in an RV (if anything). Me, I'd like to retire to Florida and spend a few years sailing - doing runs to the Bahamas mon.
The pirates of the Caribbean are a thing.
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of Tums.
