Boatnerd Discussion Forum

Glad you had a great time, bbqbull! Can't wait to see your trip pix. =)

Lucky, Lucky, Lucky! Can't wait to see your pictures. Glad you had a great time.

So glad to hear you enjoyed your trip! Thank you for supporting boatnerd. Looking forward to seeing some of your pictures!

We got home yesterday after riding the St. Mary's Challenger freighter.
First I would like to thank Mr. Ed Hogan and his company for donating this trip to Boatnerd.com. for the grand prize.
I was the lucky winner and after riding that ship my wife and I are still on cloud nine.
We were treated like family by the entire ships crew.
Thank you Capt. Al Tielke and your hardworking crew for taking time to explain to us how everything worked on the ship.
The entire crew were nothing but pure class!
The food was outstanding as well as everything else.
I will post some pictures on the Boatnerd forum in a couple days.
It is our wish that all Boatnerd fans get a chance to ride a freighter in their lifetime.
Thank you again for everything!
Mike and Dorothy Mather
