I was in control on the 654 in Rota and helped Sophia, (now Queen of Spain) down the ladder for a tour of the boat.  They ate dinner with the crew.  Great folks!  At that time Juan Carlos was Pretender to the Throne, as Franco was still in power.  Her skivvies were NOT Govt. Issue.

Thought you were qualified!  Don't push up on butts to get out.  Just pressurize the boat!

All sorts of things happening there.  New head, carpet, and walls moving around.  Looking good.

A new commode is being installed in the head in the Albacore visitors center this winter.  It is on hold until the plumbers run the air to the septic tank so it can be blown properly.  Jim is against that because he knows who will have to clean up after venting mishaps.
