Maybe i should put this in the GOP board but I helped a guy last year and had a different experience. He was coming in through the southway with a 25ish foot speed boat and nailded the sand bar before the entrance. There was a decent swell and he started taking waves over the transome. His wife was on board with their baby in her arms. I ran to my boat went out around and threw him a line to attach to his bow. I pulled him a little bit out to sea and he figured out that he had blow his prop so I said I would bring him in. I waited for a set of big waves to go by and he yelled "where are you going" I said I wanted to wait for the waves to pass so you don't surf into my motor... Finally I got him in through the narrow channel and pulled him to shore in a safe are. He didnt' even look me in the eye when he said a half assed thanks... I risked allot by helping him and the guy was totally unappriciative...

Would i do it again... yes
