I was scheduled to go on 3/29. Started heading up to Hyannis when I got the call. Blown out - again! Third time I've been cancelled this year. I've re-scheduled for Monday, April 7.
It's frustrating making plans for the Helen H when you have a six hour trip to get there. Often, you've packed all your gear and gotten well on your way before you get the call that they're not going.
Bottom line, though, I like the Helen H's commitment to safety. Too many captains will take you out in all kinds of crappy weather and let you get beat up.
