Drifting COVID Cruise Ship and 1000ft Oil Tanker off San Diego
Today I hitched a ride on one of the TowBoatUS boats to do a couple pick ups and drop offs near the coast of San Diego California. The first was to a nearly one thousand foot long oil tanker to drop off a technician and some gear. Got to work on my bowlines as we hoisted his gear up the side of the massive ship. Learn your knots folks!
The second stop was to a cruise ship called Ruby Princess. We were taking a crew member back home for his holiday leave and delivering some Covid 19 tests that would be headed to the hospital once ashore. It was eerie to pull up to basically a gigantic ghost ship with no passengers that has orders just to drift until further notice.
Overall another successful and exciting day boating in San Diego. You never know what you will get yourself into ON THE DOCKS..
Thanks for watching!

On The Docks
Ahoy, YouTube! Thanks for checking out my channel ON THE DOCKS. I’m Jack, and I have been a Dockmaster in San Diego for several years now and I have found that a Marina is a truly crazy and magical place. A melting pot, if you will, where the opportunity for excitement looms around every corner. Helicopters landing on MegaYachts. Surf spots only accessible by boat. Seagulls that kill. Homeless vagabonds. Boat owners gone mad. Endless free fish. Pirates. The search for the perfect burrito. And even an amazing love story. So I decided to get a camera and start recording. This is my life ON THE DOCKS, where I’ll be exploring every aspect of life at the marina, the surrounding San Diego area, and where ever else life takes me. Even if you aren’t a boater, don’t worry, there’s a little something for everybody ON THE DOCKS. Just remember, the Marina giveth, and the Marina taketh away........enjoy!
