Re: Boat towing question .......
I remember about 13 years ago I took my girlfriend, now wife, for a ride on my grandfathers boat. It was late afternoon on a Sunday and in my rush to show her my boating ability I left the handheld vhf and my cellphone at the house. We just got out into great bay when I realized my error and decided it was best to turn around. Mid u- turn the boat stalled and wouldn't start. Luckily not 5 min after 2 guys in a pontoon boat pulled up and offered to tow us in. Turned out they lived one lagoon over and wouldn't take a dime. Those guys saved my ass that evening. Turned out to be a blown coil and there wasn't a spare on the boat. I never leave the dock without a phone and a vhf anymore.
