I was going to let this die a slow death but after reading your comments I just had to respond. The part about the uneducated beer swilling moron.....add from Pensacola, Fl and you'll be spot on. As for as getting clear of them..it all depends on the wind my friend. Take one our boats out in a nice little 20-30 knot breeze and we can scoot to safety pretty darn quickly. But if God has blessed me with a light wind I have been cast into Hell itself.
