Title: This is my town Post by: JDJP on May 24, 2012, 09:56:35 am Well, got a little slack time at work due to some weather working its way up from down south. So I figured is share some random stuff with youall.
Yesterday, I was just finishing up, gassing some waverunners, making sure stuff is tied up right, when I get a call. 6:00 "hey Matt (good buddy with 23' dusky) is broke down on the way back from swordfishing." He was 13 miles offsho, but luckily got towed half way in from there by a cool guy in a 50' sportfish. That only cost him a tail section of the 200lb swordfish he had in the boat. After getting the boss man's go ahead I took our 24' parker with a brand new 300 yamaha v6 and started heading that way. I was told it was only 2-3, so I figured I could make good time. As I headed out the Jupiter inlet SE I noticed it was about 2-3 out of the se, but with head high sets rolling through every couple minutes. So it was slow going, but man what a great boat, can't wait to take it fishing. Wish I woulda brought a rod for the ride out. So the rest was easy, using a couple knots I've learned that are very helpful in these situations, we towed in nice and smooth.

It all that writing on his motor saying "suzuki" Yamaha all the way! Title: Re: This is my town Post by: Reuben on May 24, 2012, 12:39:12 pm nice pics...I like that boat in tow...
Title: Re: This is my town Post by: jdt on May 24, 2012, 09:41:37 pm do you mean to tell me that a guy found him stranded and helpless 13 miles from land , and charged him to bring him halfway !
