    Cool

    I wonder what the odds are that someone in that situation would survive? Nice going. Sounds like you made a new friend.

    Outstanding job on your part. What a F***ed up world we live in, where so called friends allow one to drown over a drink.

    Way to step up. It just goes to show that you always have to keep scanning, you never know what you will see.

    Way to step up and save someone's life!! Man, just think if your girl was not scanning the drink for fish on top!! The guy probably would have been a nice meal for one of those hammerheads!

    Congrats for saving the guys life, now if you could only convince him to get a vascectimy maybe you could prevent further deteroration of the gene pool.
    his friends sound equally as stupid.

    Two thoughts come to mind....

    First, the cliche "With friends like that, who needs enemies"

    Second, alcohol abuse and boating don't mix. I've heard the USCG can conficate your boat if you are caught BWI. The only beer on my boat is O'Douls.

    On how it ends...

    The guy never thanked us, but he was shaken up beyond belief. He seemed drunk, but and 40 min. in the water could have waken him up a bit. The last thing I heard was that the Coast Guard did confiscate their boat, as they didn't have any life saving equipment, and the vessel was deemed unsafe.

    I thank you guys for recognizing the situation for what it is. It takes a real boater to understand the responsibility of what we do for enjoyment.

    On a positive note: My girlfriend and I will have a picture in Florida Sportsman Magazine for a fish we (she) caught in Naples, FL. An amazing Redfish, so keep an eye out. Just starting to realize how great my girl is, scans all day for breaking fish, and lands a Redfish big enough to get my ugly mug in a magazine.
