"This is a picture of the Mansfield tied up to the dock at Everett, WA on 1 July 1961. We had just come out of Long Beach after completing Fram Mark 5. This was our second cruise. The first was a dependent cruise. We were delayed on the way up with fuel oil in the DA tank. As far as I know, no one ever figured out how it got there. We lost the load in the outer harbor before we could get to the dock, which raised a few eyebrows on the bridge. I think I remember the 'electrocutions' goofed up when switching the electrical load from #1 to #2 turbo. That's me standing on the dock when I was an MMFN." |
