    This Captain screwed up big time (pic's)

    I got this from another site, it speaks for itself. I fixed the name of the boat below and the pics to save a little face for the guy. But I still don't understand how he made this judgement, Ive seen these rigs under tow in the gulf it is hard to miss I mean you can literally see it miles in the distance.


    "These are some pics of his boat P*********r and his fishing party evacuating onboard one of our rigs Sunday afternoon. This floater was under tow when P***e drove his rig between the tug and the towing attachment on the bow of the rig.
    His lower units were damaged on the tow line and he went dead ship.
    Supposedly, they were unaware that the rig was being towed. The rig,
    being underway, then ran into his fishing boat. They had to
    evacuate on to a rig column when the fishing boat got hung underneath some horizontal braces. The rig heard a Mayday on the radio being called
    in but didn't see a boat when they looked around on the horizon. They
    didn't know to look down thru the moonpool. That's when some
    Roughnecks hallered out on the PA that there were 5 men clinging on
    to the pontoons.

    As of this morning, the fishing boat is tied up to the side of an
    anchor boat.

    As of this afternoon, the boat is still tied to the AHV but
    its upside down. The AHV said when he gets to location and stops his
    forward speed, he is going to cut the rope and this Glacier Bay is going
    down.

    They will send in the lat and lon of the wreckage to the Coast Guard. I
    think I would be asking for a trip refund if I had chartered this boat! I
    wonder if there are in YFT in those fish boxes!"

    I saw one of these pics a while back. I bet there was tuners in da box considering that captain is one of the best in the area down there.
