The First storm of the season is just starting up here. Some Nice wind gusts to welcome the Boys back. Most of the Boats left yesterday, even the NW after a brief return to dock.
If you have a chance say a quick prayer for the guys today!

Yeah, nice way to start the season. My prayers for the whole fleet and awaiting all full boats of crab and safe returns.

Hey, any hint as to why the NW turn-around?

Hello there,

This is a question for the webmaster/admin here at dutchharbordirt.blogspot.com.

May I use some of the information from your post right above if I give a backlink back to this website?

Thanks,
Peter
