The man here is working on the end of the ramp of a barge/tug combo making its way into the Catalyst mill harbour
for a pick-up and delivery. He's one of the deckhands on the Stormaway V, a tug working out of Campbell River.
The photos are a backwards sequence.
It's a much better job in the summer. These raw cold, wet and windy days we've been having are not great days
to be working on the water. The snaps were taken Sunday.

It takes a lot a lot of skill and confidence to do what this guy is doing.
ReplyDeleteThe weather's bad enough. Working out on that ramp in wind and waves? No thanks! And that barge is carrying an odd assortment of cargo.
