Latitude 38’s November Caption Contest(!)

Welcome to November’s Caption Contest(!). This month’s photo was sent to us by a Navy-documented “shellback.” (We’ve seen the certificate of proof!) The shellback, an 82-year-old retired Navy chief, tells us the person in the photo had been illegally boat-camping and was “told to leave,” adding this month’s first caption: “I knew it wouldn’t fit in the blue garage.”

    Edgar’s concept for a floating A frame house still had a few kinks to work out.

    At the halfway point in his voyage Chief thought about the situation and declared it was time to splice the Mainbrace, then went below for an extra ration of rum.
