I actually saw that Yellowfin on Saturday morning, and it did extremely well in the conditions. (great looking boat by the way) Blew by us and we were doing 19kts. I am suprised by how many small boats were out there. We saw the chopper fly over as we were heading in.

I think the guy can be prosecuted and fined for setting off the epirb in that circumstance........and he should be

I am on the old boat I worked in those pics. This year there was no chopper (or at least it didn't follow us like in years past heading around Wasque). I think the wind might have had something to do with it.

heeee-heeee...
big difference between 30' battlewagen and a 60' battlewagen. in 8 foot swell... loaded with champagne glasses,,,, and glass coffee tables. tv's falling over... oops the fridge just fell over into the convection oven

i bet drifting sideways, up in the bridge 25 feet above the deck would get old pretty quick. if you could even get up there...

i woulda went but not my call. ohh whell we're 1500 the richer... and no fist fights...


you know me... if the engines ain't barkin' the rev limiter every other wave..
it's no fun
