While the Gammel Dansk was still in our Cap Sante slip...
These intrepid rowers were headed out of our marina area to have a little ocean row. They shouted in unison with each rowing stroke: GAMMEL...DANSK, GAMMEL...DANSK. They wanted to come along on our Great Loop trip. I shouted, keep rowing -- sooner or later like the Vikings, they would hit dirt and find a new land. If it is cold and icy, I advised them to row backward on the double quick.
Greg Mustari, with a steady hand and calm demeanor, guides the Gammel Dansk...
Under Greg's helpful and experienced piloting, the Gammel Dansk made its way from our L Dock, Slip 45 at Cap Sante Marina in Anacortes -- as you'll hear in the video below, Greg shouts "Got Lucky Again!" as other boats moved out of his way -- to the North Harbor Repair haul-out dock. Greg also helped oversee the loading process so we did not have to be present when the transport truck arrived. We call him the Nordic tug guru (or, according to Dan, the Yoda of Nordic Tugs).
