Some barge porn. Those of you who haven't worked around this fine specimen of a sea-going vessel might recognize the name since Charlotte mentioned it in "Eating Dirt."

This is amazing. The boat must be quite large to accomodate a dozen planter plus the cook and captain. How long do they live on the boat?

As long as they need to.

Water taxis bring in critical supplies each shift (ie. food and beer).

Yeah, I probably should have also put in a short clip of the almost vertical mountainside slash pile that I had to plant the next day, where it took me three hours to put in 140 trees.
