One ADCAP is still all that is needed to make it a reef lol. All kidding aside, it is always good to see another vessel assisting in the fight.

I think 31-knots would be almost embarrassed by the attention .... but also proud knowing of this ship's fighting capability.

Fair winds and following seas to those who sail in her!
