Mike,
Good point. I have to tell you though that there was nothing unusual about
the job he was doing. I do many, many similar tows every week. We all think
he hit the Hyperion pipeline with the sailboat's keel. If so, he was
definitely in error by being in too close. Also it doesn't do any good to
have the proper gear on the boat if you can't get to it in time. That's why
any good captain....especially on a commercial assistance boat willl keep a
SHARP knife on his belt were he can get to it quickly. If he could have cut
his line he only would have lost the sailboat. The loss of line and hook is
a cheap one.
Mike
P.S. Whatever happened to that CD you had?
