We attended a Coast to Coast presentation to receive a "free" king salmon fishing trip.....right.....
Soooo, we are up early to wait for the boat which took us out into Valdez Harbor, about even with the end of the pipeline tanks and 700 ft deep
Ahhh, here we are fishing for king salmon....that pesky wife keeps asking about the water in the back of the boat. Everyone knows that is normal...........
Uh oh, the "captain" (his certification was in the mail) looks like he has noticed the rising water........Things sound serious when he calls for "any boat" for help . Time to check for life vests.....
The water was up to the valve covers and rising even with all the pumping
Yea....the rescue boat is on the way. It was a lot bigger. Since the deck of it was above my head, Larry was wondering just how he was going to get a very un-athletic wife up over that rail. No problem......I really do hate cold water.
The big boat captian tied us to it & hauled us in. They said the boat could be fixed & we could go back out in the afternoon. We said we wanted the free dinner instead......it was very good. AND.....it was not king salmon season yet!
