Good thing they had a good radio! Amazing story!

This is an amazing story! I was going to repost this here (with permission) but it's just too long. This is about a sport fishing vessel that got trapped off the coast of Mexico. Without their radio they would have been in big trouble. It makes me never want to leave home without one!

very good point, moleculo. i NEVER leave home without my cb, even if it's just my handheld realistic trc-207. call my a cb nerd, but when your $400 cell phone has no service, i can still get out on my walkie talkie, lol.

Funny how the USCG said that the federallies would be in violation of the law for boarding a foreign vessel in international waters yet the USCG does it all the time. Glad it worked out for them.

I think it's pretty funny that after calling the CG, the next thing they thought about was fishing......

....typical fisherman!

If you were stuck in the same spot for hours and the water around you was boiling with captive fish what would you do?
