Uh guys, that is why we carry big knives on our belts. Good golly Gertie was the pilot drinking or just green and over enthusiastic.

Dunno, story says he fell on his ass and before he could recover they were going down.

His job was the wheel, thats why he has a deckhand to act as gaffer.

An Old Chef Once told me. Some days you get the bear. Some days the bear gets you. Do your best to get the bear.

That almost happened to me on a marlin fishing trip in Cabo San Lucas a few years ago.

I'd hooked up a 220lb striped marlin and the captain started to back up the boat, against the ocean swells, every time a swell hit the fantail a foot of water came over the side. While i was fighting the fish the other three guys were bailing water out the back of the boat. Took an hour and 45 mins to land the fish, probably could have brought him in sooner if i wasn't preoccupied with the captain sinking the god damned boat.
