Hell thats nothing. When I was in the Navy, on a mine sweeper, up there in Alaska if you got mail duty, you had to go to the bow of the ship with a gaffing hook, and snag the mail buoy, and wrestle it aboard. A mine sweeper is a small ship about the same size as a crab boat. Everyone wanted the mail buoy watch, because after you snagged the mail sack, you got a coffee cup half full of grog.
