Here's the latest satellite photo that I've been able to find of the Jason in the "Mothball Fleet" up in Suisun Bay, Calif. It was taken late in 2004. Great view, huh? Ain't she real pretty, ha ha? Can you guess which ship is the Jason? If you're not sure, send an e-mail to Nick at sailorboy@pacbell.net and I'll be glad to give you the answer.

Here are some photos that show the Jason being towed through the Panama Canal and down in Brownsville, Texas at the ship boneyard. She was a great ship with a great crew. Too bad that she's already been reduced to scrap. It's a sad thing to think about. She's gone but never forgotten. At least not as long as I have my website.
