One time we were at Smith Point on Nantucket when a kid came on the beach in his father's brand new explorer. It still had the sticker on the window and plastic on the seats. He had no permit , did not air down , had no equipment , etc. He got stuck at low tide in a spot that would have 3 feet of water at high tide. he wouldn't do anything we told him to to get unstuck. Eventually we just left him and went back to fishing. Finally as the water started creeping in , he all but got on his knees and begged for help. We deflated his tires , had him dig some , jacked up a wheel onto our boards and got him out in about 10 minutes.

When he broke free he made the mad dash off the beach without even a thankyou or good bye. That SUV came close to being totalled with less than 100 miles on it!
