Re: Good Samaritans Save Six Lives
Gary D from NJF was also with us assisting. All the credit has to go to the captain, Dom from Coastal Charters; he knew just what to do and we just followed his lead.
and Tom, I got my karma payback in RI monday and tuesday with some fantastic tog fishing both days and the bad weather avoiding us almost completely despite the forecast!
And hopefully this also reminds people to make sure they have all their safety equipment and it WORKS. These guys had a radio that didn't work and a flare gun that didn't work. we barely saw them waving a hand flare. They also only had 3 life vests for 4 guys and i highly doubt the dog crate floated. They boat capsized maybe 3 minutes at most after we pulled them off... It happens eerily fast!
