Trez,

Never heard of Gary T...

But that doesn't mean anything.

During the mid 90's a lot of subcontractors were brought into the project. Holes were blown - we had Jack Up barges - we add boats with blowers so big, the captains were afraid to deploy them in the shallow water where the scatter pattern actually is!

There is a better photo in the posting under shipwrecks and the Historic, blah, blah, blah, ....
Am I allowed to poke fun at myself?

Lets see if this photo posts
