He took his 48 foot trawler outside the south jettie in Galveston Sat
night.

Somehow he managed to get washed up in the surf. Said he lost his
starter, has a single 6-71 detroit. We were up last night till 3
getting the coast guard and sea tow on location. The Coast guard will
no go in that shallow in the surf and get him. And the sea tow boats
did not have the power to get him off. A 35 foot twin engine searay
just took off to go try to get him, but I feel they are wasting there
time. The guy who owns the trawler has only had it 3 months. It a
Bruce roberts Steel hull. Going to listen on the VHF as soon as my
friend gets on site. Somehow I have the feeling he going to lose his
boat without the efforts of a really big supply boat and a quarter
mile long BA Hauser. The trawler has a really deep keel and if its
buried it will take several 1000 HP to yank him out. On top of the the
guy who owns the trawler had a stroke a couple of years ago and has
lost use of one arm. His crew is a little phillipino girl that has
never been on a boat.

If the Tropical wave builds and hits today thats in the gulf all will
be lost.

Its a shame, Nice trawler...

I have access to a 60 foot crewboat with 2 12-71 TI's. If my buddie
cant get him off we may give it a go with the crewboat. Problem is the
crew boat was bought last week and hasent had any real testing of its
seaworthyness. Its a X Corp of engineers boat we just brought back for
Morgan City LA. and has some real thin spots on the hull. But the
engines are fresh and strong.

I told the guy to just go fish here in the bay, told him were to
catch some really big flounders, but did he listen? NOOOoooooooo. I
told him to paint his decks white to help out his AC's but did he
listen? Nooooooooooo. I told him not to pass that tow to wait but did
he listen Noooooooo, and got a big hickey down the side when he was
sucked into the Tugboat on the ICW. Some people including this guy are
just thick as a brick.

The fun around here never ceases.

Not so entertaining... we saw a large fishing boat washed up on the beach at
the
Santa Cruz entrance. Missed the harbor in the fog somehow. Before they
realized
it they were sideways on the beach. Fortunately, they all managed to get off
before
the surf started really pounding. I didn't stick around, but it looked like
the CG was
having a heck of time trying to hold it steady while they got off. I doubt
there was
much left. This was a few years ago.

Probably so. Those boats are set up for speed, not slow pulling. All
those props are going to do is slip a lot and stir up the sand.

Why not set a kedge and use a really really big winch? There are
diagrams in the U.S. Navy Salvage Manual of how to connect a running
block on a tow boat to a well set kedge and gain huge purchase advantage.

You said a while ago you are a Tull fan... have you ever paid attention
to the words of this album? Calling somebody thick as a brick is
somewhat of a compliment, in it's terms.

I agree but the fellow owed him a favor, he felt obligated.

First big boat, he had a little cabin crusier. I think he cashed in
his retirement and bought the boat. Hope he has it insured but I doubt
it.

We thought of that but his winch is weak when it comes to pulling. And
he is on a sandy bottom. No anchor is going to hold kedging that much
weight unless it came off a really big ship. A 35,000 pounder might do
the job, but if you had a boat that could set that size an anchor most
likely they could snatch her off the beach. Thats what Ive been tryin
to say, he sould bight the bullet and get a proper salver on site
before its to late. I got a proper one lined up but is a 13K job. Most
of the cost is insurance related they tell me.

Somewhat. If he had an emergency stern anchor ready to go perhaps he
would not be in the mess he is in. And his only crew is a girl who has
never been on a boat and most likely not capable of dropping the hook,
which left him with one arm trying to stop a train. Simple mistake,
dont think so.

And now we are concerned about a fuel spill. His hull is part of his
fuel tanks, so if he gets punchard he has 1700 gallon of fuel onboard.
The area is all sand with big sharp rocks here and there.


The fun around here never ceases.

Makes the time go by quicker, too.

It's funny how when your young time flows like a glacier, as you age
it flows like a ragein river.

Don't forget that salvage laws provide a nice incentive to rescue the boat.
