The last time I sailed with Paul Heyman was on the Bibi in 1988 when my wife Sarah was also onboard. These photos show Paul and PJ showing Sarah and Jane Mules (wife of C/S Pete Mules) around the engine control room. That's the major difference these days, there's no fun anymore! Maersk run dry ships and will fire us if we laugh more than twice a day. Basically it's just work or kip until it's home time. Best thing about working for Maersk is the job-sharing scheme, so at least we have short trips and only work for 6 months a year. That's certainly better for seeing the family more often.
