These are pictures of the Mansfield refueling somewhere between Hawaii and Long Beach, CA. on our way back from WestPac. It was at the tail end of a bad storm and we had an “emergency break away”. We usually refueled on our port side, but on this occasion we refueled on our starboard side. Hope it brings back memories to some of you.
