MOTOR/VESSEL MANANA ...As humanitarians we will do just about anything interesting or exciting that won't get us arrested! The Coast Guard provides us with a great deal of excitement and sense of worth. One of our favorite tasks is marine / underwater archeology sites. We also have had a lot of fun on remote shoreline and island documentaries but in the past we have performed routine towing, salvage, and have conducted normal marine operations. Captmike is interested in activities that might enhance knowledge or help someone. We, for the most part, work for the Coast Guard when we can help. These shipyard pictures will let you see how well Manana is built. The hull and frames are 3/8 steel which is nicely overbuilt. This vessel has an extremely high utility value for its' size. ...Manana is an extremely strong, seaworthy vessel... ...View my little ship... 5 double beds, 2 heads, all electric galley, 41 KW primary generator, 35 KW secondary generator, 2 ton crane, Furuno 24 mile radar, 3604 - 36 mile Raytheon radar, Robinson autopilot, 2 Motorola-VHF-FM radios, Garmin 100 GPS and Garmin 120 GPS with GBR 21 differential, All frequency SEA-225 SSB radio, full spectrum HAM radio gear, 3 computers loaded with Captain navigation, captains log, weather fax, office, fax, WIN98 and XP pro. ...Captmike and his Manana... ...Towing a 440 ton houseboat at 5.6 knots ...captmike...
