Good call on the go-pro. That boat looked huge from the water.
Everything is better on the rocks.

That is just a nutty story, so glad you and your buddies are okay. It's strange how when #^&#^&#^&#^&e hits the fan how quick things happen and how blurry the actual events seem afterwards.

Man am I glad you guys made it, it doesn't get any crazier than that...

I just bought a boat this year and this really opened my eyes a bit. Reading this for now the 4th time and forwarding link to my buddy. Certainly an eye opener and very glad you are all OK. Thank you for sharing.
