I used to, a few years back while onboard on old fishing trawler tied to a dock.
Sometimes I'd take a laptop outside and set it on the samson post, since it rose about as high as my ribcage when standing aft of it. Was poaching a free wireless signal from a nearby hotel.
Contemplating starting a blog entitled "From the Samson Post", but never bothered. Besides, the signal was too dicey. Better to trudge uptown a ways, and get a better connection.
:) Your a romantic I can tell..Floatin along.
