Default Re: Tough weekend for Seacrafters

A friend who details yachts wanted to go fishing as he doesn`t so a month ago we went out. We had a weeklong east press and I thought we might run for Dolphin. We went up to Juno Pier and I put a few dozen Sardines in the well. The Snapper bite has been outstanding this Summer , So I called Black Dog to get a report. Capt Bill said they we all over if you can find em. The vanity plate on his truck is not a Sailfish or Dolphin, it`s a Mutton. I decided to stay in and try to put Peter on some fish. At least some Bonita to let him have fun , if nothing else. Put 4 nice Mutton in the boat , and Peter had fun, so around noon we picked up. The Bonita, Kings, and Pimps had gotten the rest of the livies anyway. Coming back in @ 3700 and the check engine light comes on. 2000 and on again. 1400 and on again. Figured the e10 had gotten my VRO. Called SeaTow P.B.. they asked if I had the ability to anchor up, and I thought of Ron White.{The cops said I had the right to remain silent...., but I didn`t have the ability.} I told them I was on the 60 line 1/2 mi. so. of Juno Pier and asked if it was necessary. S.T. Jupiter hailed and said he was on his way. 10 mins and the radio cracks, that you off my bow Wide Open. Yepper. That was really nice as he didn`t have to do that. I offered him a Mutton as we transfered to S.T.P.B. down Singer Isl. , but he declined. 3 more S.T. boats were staged at the cut. Never seen that before. They said e10.
At home I find it`s only a bad bulb! Seemed fine at the ramp, but not so much at home. 6 mos old.
