second day at sea

so i'm a little shaken up from the day before, but remind myself to stay positive. that even worse things can happen out here.
we fill our boat to about a million pounds and head back to the cannery to unload.
we unload. we go back out.
now were working. pumping boats. i'm learning how to use the pump now since kevin's not with us. so were working. about to pump a new boat. i turn the power on for the pump and i just hear a pop-----fuzzzz---and smoke comes out. kenny looks over and says "god damn it son of a bitch cocksucker!"
he works on it for 3 hours. no work is being done. boats have to find another tender to unload with. the whole time i think it's my fault, but it's not. that piece of shit engine is older than kenny. covered in rust.
we go back to the cannery. the head electrician takes a look at it. opens it up and it looks like the bottom of a barbecue grill. just nothing but ash and soot. the engine is shot.
so were back in cordova. waiting for parts. it'll be about 2 days before we go back out. but i'm getting paid. getting paid to type this. so it's fine with me.
