They built the boat. *Like to know more about the boat.

He is just a boat salesman I guess. Running across the grass flats
like that means he doesn't care that much about the fish.


I still think a USCG rescue swimmer is in these guys' future


Can they "prepay" for that service? It's going to take far less than a
"perfect storm" to flip that boat out in the Atlantic.- Hide quoted text -

Come on Harry, your dad made the crossing in a small skiff. Didn't he
ever take the time to tell you any of the stories? So, what was it

Harry just said it wasn't in a flats boat. I sure would like to see a
picture of the boat ready for takeoff! I also wonder why there just
isn't any knowledge, pictures or news articles about that fireboat
welcome....!!!
