A local fisherman. This guy is 25 miles offshore in that thing. No GPS, no life jackets, compass, VHF nothing! Talk about BALLS! And they think nothing of it. Sometimes there are hundreds of them out here in weather I wouldn't dream of taking my big fiber glass boat out in. Makes me feel like a wuss sometimes. They don't know anything else. We've pulled fishermen out of the ocean several times who have sank their boats. These guys take their lives in their hands every time they go fishing. No coast guard to call here if they get in trouble. You can't really see it but he has a 15HP Yamaha outboard on that thing.
