Default Salute to Ocean Isle Fishing Center Staff

This past Saturday Offshore3144 (Mark) and I witnessed a true act of professionalism. We were at the Ocean Isle Fishing Center and after eating lunch at the Giggling Mackerel noticed a small skiff that had become completely grounded after the tide had gone out. Two men were up to their knees in mud trying to move the boat but it wasn't going to happen. Keep in mind that the boat was next door at another restaurant's dock. Mark and I were amazed to see Capt Barrett andCapt Roger crank up the 36' Carolina Contender and maneuver into position to pull the boat about 10 feet and into water. Just a great example of professional courtesy.

Great act of good men helping others and nice of Tom and Mark to report on the Internet.

BTW: Time to fish guys (if the wind will ever stop blowing on a weekend).

Tommy is right !!Those poor guys looked quite pittiful trying to get their boat out of the mud. You could almost hear the suction release when they were pulled free. Kudos again. Mark
