    its a tale of ages and preparedness... i was a young green boatie (12 months ago) and he was an old salt.....

    there was music most touching.....

    he broke a fuel line and we went fishing then towed the broke ass bastard back as we were coming back to port...... useless tit didnt even have an aux mount so i couldnt even loan him fuel and an engine.

    ive since sold my boat and i hear that the tit still hasnt bought an aux motor.

    Nice one, always good to get ya hand in on a bit of recovery looks pretty flat which would have been a bonus.

    water over the bar was shallow so didnt want to risk sucking sand in to the main while crossing (no problem up on the plane) also a good chance to run the wee aux motor hard for a bit, they dont really get run hard very often.
