Machismo,
Being a longline pilot in Canada, yeah we would have a good laugh if you claimed banner towing as longline hours

. Also the job I am on right now is staging off an island 75nm offshore Hudson Bay, which is classed as a sea, not a lake and involves demobbing a camp and 3xdrills to a barge anchored offshore.....oh and is very precision stuff with very heavy loads and not alot of room on said heaving boat. I am claiming longline time for sure, but offshore time ....nope, Mmmm maybe I should

Company I work for is always looking for longline guys....come on 'oop north', give us all a good laugh.......

Gordy, hope all's well with you....Regards Newfie.
