Have you ever been on board a ship?

    I've been in motorboats, sailboats, yachts, river dinner cruise boats, pontoon boats, ferries, and floating casinos.  If any of those are ships, then yes, otherwise, no.    I supposed the huge ferries in the Seattle area would be considered ships.  I never road one of the huge ones.  I took water ferries for transportation in Venice Italy and others, but they only held 100 or so folks. 

    Understand that by saying I've been in a watercraft doesn't automatically mean I rode in it.  Some yes, some (like the floating casinos) weren't moving.   I've been to a few boat shows in my time.  :)

    No cruise ships.....past, present, future

    When I was young I went onto a submarine.  It wasn't moving.  I don't remember where that was.  This post was edited by Thriftymaid at September 3, 2021 6:30 PM MDT

      You missed the word “road” in her post:

    And you, apparently, missed that I didn't reply to her post, so I didn't really miss anything.

    Au contraire. You missed an opportunity to carry out your enforcement duties. And at no point did I declare, imply, intimidate, or suggest that you replied to her post. I was quite clear in that you missed something, not that you replied to anything.

    And why didn't you pull her over for it?

      Because YOU were the first officer on the scene, that’s why.
