|
|
My brother and I watched Sea Tow pull a boat off the flats just Northeast of Packery yesterday about 3 pm. When we first came up on them it looked like the tow boat was stuck untill we saw the rope in the water. The boat they were helping was at least 300 yards out in the flat.. We watched for about 30 to 45 min. and they finally worked it out. _________________ Come out of the grass with your fins up....... |

Wonder if those kites the windsurfers use would be of any help? The vertical lift would be better than a straight horizontal pull. _________________ E Pluribus Unum |
