[QUOTE="richg99, post: 400673, member: 4376"] I don't have a picture, but...some years ago, I owned a 20 ft. Gulf Coast. It was a tunnel hulled Boston Whaler knock off. I slid up her on to a reef; jumped out and went wade fishing for a few hours. When I returned, she was almost completely high and dry. Our tides here are only a foot or two most of the time. Luckily, I was with-in eyesight of a marina. I saw a boat pull into the marina. I called the marina owner and asked if he would ask the boaters to come and help. They came and hauled me off. I didn't have to spend the next six to twelve hours (until the next high tide) sitting on the reef, getting eaten by mosquitoes. Not sure what I'd have done in the days before cell phones. Guess I'd just go wade fish some more, and wait it out. regards, richg99 [/QUOTE]
