There are still good people out there. Sadly the scum bags are the ones we usually hear about.
I've never been towed in for free. But have towed another in for free. Oh well. I should have met myself. LOL

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.
