Way back when I was a pier rat down in Boynton, I used to see jon boats going out an inlet classified as unnavigable by the USCG. They would ride the trough out and come back 6 hours later.

A few years back a 42 ft. dive boat rolled goin` outta Boynton. This man was a dive master, had a 100 ton offshore ticket and ran charters for over 10 years there. On a glassy morning
you can easily take a 13 whaler to Bimini or West End.

If you have not been humbled by mother ocean, chances are you don't have much wheel time.

Last summah, we were commin` in LWI just ahead of a noon squall. As we passed Sailfish
Marina, a disabled Mako asked for a tow, I stopped and I asked where they wanted to go.

They said Currie park. I said can you hear my graphite rod humming? They said yes. I said lets go to Phil Foster and now. They declined. I said please come with us. They declined.

Yet another night.
I have many thoughts and so few words.

Many prayers,
GFS
