    Just found this today. Don't remember Oblazney or any of the other names, but I do remember Sib Lebeau. We couldn't have survived without him. A full blooded Sioux Indian, he would come up with repair parts when we couldn't get them normally. He would wander through the shipyard to find the right part and switch the tags on it so it would say it was for the Plainview. Then he would goto the shop foreman and ask him when he was going to send the part over. What a character he was! I was on the Plainview from May 1972 to May 1975 starting out as Assistant Engineer. They then sent me to the Constellation.

    My old ship. Any others out there? Glen? Lahti? Padilla? Kane? Schaffer? Remember Sib Libeau the welder?

      Impressive hydrofoil! Would you be kind enough to share with us more information on its operation? Thanks in advance.

    Fascinating to see this! I’d delighted to learn we tried something that big. That the foils were able to lift 310 tons that high is really impressive. A shame it wasn’t preserved for display.
    By the way, what's that background music? Oh, never mind, it’s “Call to Adventure” by Kevin MacLeod.
