Problem is they keep the ports open as long as possible and weather changes quickly. Other times the Capt of a ship will leave anyway even after a port closes. Happened twice in Masbate that I know of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it should be, Good these Island Ferries got away from the "I'm the captain and say we Go" regime 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nephew, a PO 1 now, had to go to Iloilo quite often for his criminology processing and now he is stationed temporarily there but lives here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but it is what it is and must/should be done safely. Po's that need to be somewhere have the Coast Guard Cutter to call if it is that important I am sure 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
