Today was long and full of adventure, so much so that I am plagerizing from part of my email to a friend. Enjoy!
We had a pretty interesting night tonight, the last mooring we tried to retrieve didnt come to the surface so we had to tow a grapple hook along the bottom for a few hours AND THEN WE SNAGGED IT AND GOT IT TO THE SURFACE!!!!! I THREW THE THROWING HOOK AND GOT IT HOOKED ON THE FIRST THROW!!! AND THE LITTLE F*CKER SLIPPED OFF AND SANK AGAIN AND SNAPPED THE LINE TO THE THROWING HOOK!!!! So we got ready to try again AND THEN THE RELEASE FINALLY WORKED AND IT CAME TO THE SURFACE!!!!!!! then when we were pulling up to it, THE CONTROLS FOR THE ENGINES STOPPED WORKING CAUSE AN AIR PRESSURE REGULATOR STOPPED WORKING!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!! and then we got controls back and the guys couldn't get the throwing hook to snag on it!!! lol but we finally got it to the side of the boat and then it was a pretty normal retrieval :) and now it is two in the morning, we have a big day tomorrow so i shall be going to bed. good night!!!
