Missing our Captain? | Tug & Barge - Harbour Expansion Project | Sailing with the James's (Ep. 77)

Lately Sam has been from the frame from the last few episodes - why? where has he been? What has he been up to? Sam has been doing Tug & Barge work for the Townsville Port Expansion Project, driving a tug. The roster has been crazy hectic and a lot of the schedule has been the dreaded night shift. The expansion project ran 24 hours a day on 2 shifts (5am - 5pm & 5pm - 5am). The project has now wrapping up and we are thankful that there is no more night shift! Townsville Port Expansion Project: By completion, the expansion will add a new outer harbor, with widened and deepened sea channels, six new berths, 150 hectares of additional reclaimed land and associated infrastructure. https://www.townsville-port.com.au/projects-development/channel-upgrade/channel-widening/ ________________ Welcome to Sailing with the James's!
