I went out to the sea with school, it was a lot of fun and I got to steer the ship and there was a problem with the cooling water system so me and a classmate/friend took a look inside the engine room and fixed the problem; there was a leaf stuck in the filter!

Engine room. Engine is at the right. Average speed was 600rpm.

The device next to the blue object is the cooling water system filter.

We tanked 2200 liters of diesel oil at this station.

@Sefalik, yeah it definitely is relaxing! We had strong wind though at a certain point, which was a bit hard to deal with but we managed. We keep on making coffee actually haha, and we buy some food like crisps and whatnot to enjoy ourselves in the breaks we get. Fishing would be a nice activity, but we don't have time for that since it's pretty much school actually. I'm studying to be a maritime officer as well as an engineer so we spend time on practical stuff related to that, I had to steer the boat for a while and gauge our location every 10 minutes by using the GPS and a WGS84 mercator map. Besides that I also had to take a look in the engine room which I like more than the proceedings at the bridge. We also do little chores like painting or whatever.
However I would fish if it was in my free time! I will definitely buy a ship later, and invite dreamviews so we can chill haha. :p

One of my favorite rooftop Telcom installations we did at an old building in B'more back in 2003.

We built a steel deck hanging over the courtyard. ...don't look down!!!

I loved the vintage open-frame freight elevator.

The cables and emergency brake. If only I could visit this elevator in a dream.

Lots of juice flowing through this room.

Damn OZ, I caught 8 heart attacks when I saw that first pic and "The Ring" flashed through my mind :shock:

Hahaha. It seems quite a few people have had the same reaction (including myself). That picture looks a lot like the well in The Ring. :D
Well, we've added on some more, since then!

My roommate has the '44', in the upper-right hand corner (inside joke), and his pup's paw prints are on the big stone just to the left of my 'G'.

Had to double take on this one. Did a few RCs. Looked just like my dream last night. Weird shit like this happens to me all the time.
Anyways, enjoy the nice fog by the mountains :)
Sorry for taking this picture with a freaking potato.
