ON THE WATER / ON TWO WHEELS / OUTDOORS

Personal.

Boats, bikes,
and a little adventure.

Away from offshore projects: time aboard Pumps and Hose, motorcycles, and getting outdoors in the Jeep.

01 / ON THE WATER

Pumps and Hose.

Cape Coral, FL Galveston, TX

I completed a Gulf crossing aboard Pumps and Hose, traveling from Cape Coral, Florida, to Galveston, Texas.

She’s a 43-foot 1987 Vista, powered by twin Caterpillar 3208 turbo diesel engines rated at 375 hp each.

Two very different motorcycles, with plenty of mechanical character.
