Cap'n. Rob (aka DavidBuoy) got high last night! The in-mast furling mainsail got fouled on the 45' Jeanneau that we were crewing on, and he went all the way to the top of the 52' high mast in a bosun's chair, while under way, to free it. What a guy! After he came down he was awarded double his beer ration, to settle his nerves, I guess, and the skipper let him take the helm! Good job Rob!
