I would venture to say that none of the drives broke because they hit bottom. It mostly had to to with the roughness of the water.... |

Anyone ever hear about CMS Castaway?
I heard Wednesday that the driver, Miller, suffered a mild heart-attack. Saturday, all I heard was Bob got a replacement driver and next thing you know, he is getting towed back in, sunk! What's up? |

Re: Key West Damaged Boats
JC Perf., I found the nose to the Callen boat, The nose was about 1 to 2 miles off sunset key when I found it. I tryed to tow it , but I was not succesfull . So , I contacted race people who contacted callen and I waited for about 2 1/2 hrs till the Callen team came out. meantime we had drifted a few miles. My anchor would not hold. We then helped the team put the sponson into there ridgid inflatible. The thanks I got for saving the sponson of there boat was 2 tee shirts. O'boy . I wasn't too thrilled with there thanks as it cost me 2 1/2 hrs of my time and another $200 in hotel fee's as I had to spend another night.

Re: Key West Damaged Boats
Q.S. I wasn't looking for anything ,and I do feel bad for there damage , but I do think that the owner of the boat could have expressed this thanks to me personally , for looking out for this property. The person that gave me the shirts was a crew member . Tom
