    “Bring the little mod v out on the Croix on a Saturday night”….they said.
    “It will be fun”….they said.

    Credit goes to Mr John Kimble for the photo.

    If anyone knows who’s tuna boat this is, let me know, I would like to send them a framed copy for their wall. )

    Came across the 94 bridge Sunday at about 5pm and I couldn’t believe the number of boats out! They missed the labor day memo I guess.

    It sure looks like that jon cut directly in from of the tuna boat and is no hurry.

    If you’re following the rules of the road, it’s much like coming to a 4 way stop. The person on the right has the right of way.

    Really the only problem with that photo is that everyone is responsible for their wake.

    I just thought it would make a nice photo for the tuna boat owner.

    Of course the fenders are dangling as well.. lol. I guess I’d rather have him go by on plane, then at 10-15mph plowing.

    I would have been tempted to shoot a flare into their yacht…

    Keep that head on a swivel. I used you sleep out there!
    Depended on the night. Some nights you just find a shoreline to sleep on safely. Others are traffic free and peaceful.

    Love the photo!
    Thanks John. Been too long! Stay safe

    That might be true for fishing boats but…
