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

"Found on the beach"
What do your partners and investors think of that statement?
What does the state think?
