So we headed out on our annual memorial day weekend trip for the owner and friends but suddenly less than an hr into the trip the port engine dropped off the sync and oil pressure dropped like a rock then the low pressure shutoff tripped the engine off line. After I jumped off the flybridge intoo the engine room and saw all my oil in the bilge . We turned it around and made it in by 7 am , after a few phone calls we washed her down an decided that the mech wasn't going to have parts till tues so we gathered the wife and kid up and ran down to the OBx and Capy Jay's neck of the woods to get in on some of the Mahi fishing that has been going off. My buddy and his familey had a beach house and needed a mte for the pit so that was all I needed were were there with a quickness. On sun we cleared HI inlet and put the bow into the waves @ 17 kts for around 18 or 20 nm then pulled back the sticks and let baits fly after the 6th bait cleared the wash all hell breaks loose and the mahi commenced to educate these northern Va boys on cockpit dancing. 19 mahi and 1 hr later we headed out to look for a hoo but never found him so we called it an early day and headed back around noon. The second day we went to OI looking for a shot at a tuna but never found them so we settled in on the fantastic Mahi fishing once again then went and put a few tilefish in the box and made 32kts all the way back.
Now i'm here back in Va waiting on a mech that has yet to appear hope everyone has a chance to head down to link up with some of NC finest to get on the fast and furious Mahi and marlin fishing that just keep getting better and better, I for one and jellious as hell!!!!
