That was my brother’s boat. We fished out of Ripley Light. He sold it last year. The new owner never re-registered the EPIRB and my brother got a call from the CG yesterday saying it went off. Don’t know the status of the crew yet.
The 2 person crew was apparently picked up by other boaters before the USCG helo got there. No word on their condition or what happened. My brother is going to try and contact the owner.
is that FeartheTurtle?
Edit: never mind, that’s your brother
If I’m posting, its because I’m sitting here at work, dreaming about fishing.
Yes, I sold this boat in Nov to a boater in Columbia, hasn’t yet called to change EPIRB info. He and a mate were rescued by the CG… he said the boat started taking on water very suddenly with no nitice and the bilges failed. They are OK, Mighty Fine not so much…

Glad everyone is safe…
Side note, those underwater pics are kind of creepy…
And just so people don’t have to read the thread, the motors sometimes can trim UP when electrical system is swamped or compromised somehow.

Had me wondering about the motors…Thanks

Not to mention…the boat is upside down…which Isaac Newton might force the engines to obey the laws of gravity.
Let’s get to the real question here. What did you find hiding under the boat and how many did you catch?
looks like some locals hauled it in!
I’m having trouble getting the pics to load, but just click on the link below to see them.
