| A friendly port call to Grand Cayman was one of my most favorite memories so far in the Coast Guard. In the picture to the left is some of my best friends from the boat. From left to right: Chum Cram, Sean Dunleavy, Michael "Joey" Simone, Andrew "Dirtface" Wachter, and Allain Balmaceda. We were enjoying a few drinks at one of the finer establishments on the island. It would turn fun, but slightly ugly a little later in the night. The bar was right on the Carribean and we had spent most of the day diving off of the rail into the sea. As one might figure, we got silly and later that night, I found myself diving again off the rail, only this time I was without clothing (as seen to the left). The worst part about it all was standing there, ready to dive, but waiting for the photographer to be ready to take the picture. Of course, climbing back out of the sea and walking through the tables of families eating was also a fun time. The next night, I noticed that schools of Tarpon gathered at the spot I was diving. If you dont know what a Tarpon is, just imagine a 7 foot fish that enjoys eating chicken. I later learned that Hammerhead Sharks are notorious night feeders in the warmer months off Cayman. So I guess I am still lucky to have my penis after all I went through that night for a good time. Remember kiddies, think before you drink. |
