So how many years since *you* have been to the Sea of Cortez, and when
are you next going back?
Why do you believe he was ever there?
There were some photos posted here in the NG, years ago now, that
somebody found on a charter fishing web site if I recall correctly. The
charter operator had taken some snapshots of his customers, and one of
them included "Dave Mann, from Derby, Kansas" reeling in some modest
little fish. I absolutely believe that he has been a guest aboard
charter fishing boats in the Sea of Cortez. He doesn't post about his
charter fishing excursions down there and in So. California all that
much, because they are far from the most interesting adventure he ever
reported here.
I'd love to see any photos of the 30-foot waves, taken from the gascan
lined cockpit of his 22-foot Bayliner, but I can't fault him for not
furnishing any. If I were busy peeing and crapping myself, trying to
shut up a screaming wife, hanging on with both hands and praying for
deliverance I probably wouldn't bother to take any photos, either. I'm
sure that faced with hurricane force winds and breaking storm waves
that exceeded the LWL by almost double, that's exactly what I, or most
anybody, would be doing. I've got to tip my hat to Skipper on that
one...I don't have a sea story that even comes close in the "lucky to
survive this incident" category, nor do most boaters who might have any
incidents they feel lucky to have survived. :-)
