It it 00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:27.029 >> so it had a few years 00:07:27.039 --> 00:07:29.270 >> and I ran it hard and I was like, man, I 00:07:29.280 --> 00:07:30.870 got to start backing off. I'm I'm 00:07:30.880 --> 00:07:32.150 wiggling the whole boat loose. 00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.150 >> I mean, he's [laughter] going from like, 00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:36.390 you know, no wake zone to 100 miles an 00:07:36.400 --> 00:07:37.589 hour everywhere. 00:07:37.599 --> 00:07:39.270 >> Oh, Caleb does put the hammer down. 00:07:39.280 --> 00:07:41.110 Yeah, you do put the hammer down. I'll 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:41.909 >> I figured 00:07:41.919 --> 00:07:42.790 >> that's pretty funny. 00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:44.070 >> I figured I I would get [laughter] a 00:07:44.080 --> 00:07:44.710 good doctor. 00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.189 >> I would get a month in 00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:47.589 six months. 00:07:47.599 --> 00:07:49.270 >> No, no, no. But like once you start that 00:07:49.280 --> 00:07:51.189 and you get in the routine, somebody's 00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:52.870 got to say something, you know? 00:07:52.880 --> 00:07:54.550 >> I don't remember how I found out. I 00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:54.710 remember 00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:55.749 >> I think we were playing poker. 00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:56.790 >> I was I thought 00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.629 >> something you were like you were like I 00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:00.390 I'm giving up. I can't figure out where 00:08:00.400 --> 00:08:01.990 these screws and bolts and nuts are 00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:03.510 coming from. But I remember 00:08:03.520 --> 00:08:05.830 >> I remember what it was cuz I had I had 00:08:05.840 --> 00:08:08.070 they were giant like 00:08:08.080 --> 00:08:09.830 >> I remember what it was. It was nuts that 00:08:09.840 --> 00:08:11.990 you put on battery terminals. 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:13.909 >> Those were at the bottom. Those were the 00:08:13.919 --> 00:08:17.830 last ones I had. You're off of six six 00:08:17.840 --> 00:08:19.350 lugs from battery terminals. 00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:20.230 >> That's funny. 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.150 >> And those were the last ones I had. And 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:23.350 you're like, I checked my batteries. 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.909 We're all good. I know somebody's I know 00:08:25.919 --> 00:08:28.150 somebody is messing with me now. But it 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:30.550 took a whole Mason jar. And like what 00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.430 made it great was when like a screw or a 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.589 washer or something would hit the C 00:08:35.599 --> 00:08:38.149 deck. Sometimes it would go overboard. 00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.870 >> So like it was I grabbed three twice a 00:08:40.880 --> 00:08:43.350 week. It was the same thing over and 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:44.790 over. Sometimes 00:08:44.800 --> 00:08:46.630 >> none of them find one. Sometimes he'd 00:08:46.640 --> 00:08:48.470 find six. Sometimes one would be on the 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.949 T-top. So when he put the hammer down, 00:08:50.959 --> 00:08:51.670 it

would fall off. 00:08:51.680 --> 00:08:54.230 >> Oh yeah, it was it was it was great. 00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:55.750 >> That's the greatest thing is your 00:08:55.760 --> 00:08:57.190 customer sitting there like holding a 00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:58.230 screw like 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:00.150 >> Yeah.

Well, he thought nobody was looking 00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.950 and he slid off the boat. I mean, this 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.350 is like 5 minutes before we're ready to 00:23:15.360 --> 00:23:17.430 pull out of the slip. He slid off the 00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:21.750 boat and went and hid in the pump house. 00:23:21.760 --> 00:23:23.669 So, they're giving me the signals to 00:23:23.679 --> 00:23:24.630 leave the dock. 00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:24.950 >> Yeah. 00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:27.590 >> And all they throw the ramp off, I back 00:23:27.600 --> 00:23:29.190 up.

So I back the 00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:42.149 boat right up to the seaw wall. He hops 00:23:42.159 --> 00:23:45.350 off the boat and runs to the pump house 00:23:45.360 --> 00:23:47.669 and then comes runs back, gets on the 00:23:47.679 --> 00:23:49.669 boat, gets up, gives me the signal.

Owen's like, "Please 00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:01.830 don't make me ups. Please don't." Like I 00:32:01.840 --> 00:32:04.149 was like, "Don't miss fish." 00:32:04.159 --> 00:32:05.190 Simple as that. 00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:06.389 >> Don't booger up and you won't have 00:32:06.399 --> 00:32:07.909 consequences.

I 00:32:22.320 --> 00:32:25.029 mean, fortunately enough, you know, I 00:32:25.039 --> 00:32:27.990 never I used to be a mate on a charter 00:32:28.000 --> 00:32:31.590 boat, but uh I've never had actual mates 00:32:31.600 --> 00:32:33.110 for me probably until the last couple 00:32:33.120 --> 00:32:34.950 years. And I think Joe was one of my 00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:36.310 first mates in the charter boat. So, 00:32:36.320 --> 00:32:38.149 I've never gotten to put any charter 00:32:38.159 --> 00:32:40.789 boat boys through the ringer, but 00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:42.630 running big boats down the Gulf, we've 00:32:42.640 --> 00:32:43.590 had a lot of mates. 00:32:43.600 --> 00:32:44.149 >> Yep. 00:32:44.159 --> 00:32:46.470 >> Had a lot of mates.

Dad can attest to this is uh 00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:54.070 >> they they have no idea what they're 00:32:54.080 --> 00:32:55.509 doing. They just got thrown on a boat. 00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:57.669 They've never been on a boat before. One 00:32:57.679 --> 00:32:59.430 of the first fun things we have to uh 00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:03.029 explain to them is that um hey go go to 00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:06.549 the deck locker and see if you can find 00:33:06.559 --> 00:33:08.710 any any prop wash. It should be in like 00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:09.750 a five gallon bucket. 00:33:09.760 --> 00:33:10.230 >> Oh 00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:11.830 >> go find 00:33:11.840 --> 00:33:13.110 >> right next to the water line. 00:33:13.120 --> 00:33:14.950 >> Yeah. You know all where we keep all 00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:16.710 like the deck scrub brush stuff. Go find 00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:19.350 us and they'll come up and like cap. 00:33:19.360 --> 00:33:21.110 >> We don't we I can't find I said all 00:33:21.120 --> 00:33:22.870 right that's good. We're we're tied up. 00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:24.789 There's like four boats down the line. 00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:26.870 go to the next boat and see if they'll 00:33:26.880 --> 00:33:29.110 let us borrow, you know, a couple of 00:33:29.120 --> 00:33:31.669 gallons of prop wash and and just watch 00:33:31.679 --> 00:33:32.470 him [laughter] 00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:34.630 >> and just watch him as he walks off the 00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:37.509 boat off the gang way down the dock to 00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:38.310 one boat. 00:33:38.320 --> 00:33:39.909 >> That's why you're sitting here smacking 00:33:39.919 --> 00:33:41.830 your buddy watching [laughter] you know 00:33:41.840 --> 00:33:43.909 and usually us as as captains, we're, 00:33:43.919 --> 00:33:45.590 you know, third floor, fourth floor up, 00:33:45.600 --> 00:33:47.750 sitting in the wheelhouse and we can see 00:33:47.760 --> 00:33:49.269 there's always a captain. Even if we're 00:33:49.279 --> 00:33:50.789 tied to the dock on these big boats, 00:33:50.799 --> 00:33:52.470 there's always a captain and we're 00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:53.830 looking down the line. You can see the 00:33:53.840 --> 00:33:55.269 captain in the next boat, the captain in 00:33:55.279 --> 00:33:56.950 the next boat, whatever. And you'll see 00:33:56.960 --> 00:33:58.870 him kind of look down into like the 00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:00.549 salon where probably his deck in or 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:01.909 somebody is like yelling up to him and 00:34:01.919 --> 00:34:04.470 he's just like, "I'm sorry." And he 00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:07.190 looks over at me and he's [laughter] 00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:09.109 doing and then he walks off that boat. 00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:09.990 >> Just go to the next one. 00:34:10.000 --> 00:34:11.349 >> And then he goes [laughter] and then he 00:34:11.359 --> 00:34:13.510 goes to the next boat. It takes about 00:34:13.520 --> 00:34:15.510 three or four boats. And these are 150 00:34:15.520 --> 00:34:17.589 175 ft boats. So, you're talking about a 00:34:17.599 --> 00:34:19.909 block worth of of different boats that 00:34:19.919 --> 00:34:22.470 he's walking up and down asking for a 00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:23.829 little bit of spare propos. 00:34:23.839 --> 00:34:26.869 >> Dude, that's a I've never heard this. 00:34:26.879 --> 00:34:28.950 >> I got to try this. That's great. 00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:30.950 >> Hold on. I got another one for you. 00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:33.190 >> So, on our on the big boats down there, 00:34:33.200 --> 00:34:35.190 you know, 24/7 we're running, so we got 00:34:35.200 --> 00:34:37.990 to have full radars and everything. And 00:34:38.000 --> 00:34:40.470 so, when we when we bring our deck in on 00:34:40.480

--> 00:34:42.310 mates on, you know, we got to give them 00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:44.310 a rundown of the safety stuff. when 00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:45.990 we're on watch, especially if you're the 00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:47.829 second or third captain. Usually the 00:34:47.839 --> 00:34:49.829 first captain would have the engineer as 00:34:49.839 --> 00:34:52.069 his mate on on shift because you got the 00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:53.190 best shift, 00:34:53.200 --> 00:34:55.270 >> but the the next bait's down, usually 00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:56.629 the third captain would get the green 00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:58.790 horn. And you would have to explain 00:34:58.800 --> 00:35:00.710 like, hey, if you're on a watch, you are 00:35:00.720 --> 00:35:02.790 my second set of eyes, and you need to 00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:05.109 make sure like I don't hit anything or 00:35:05.119 --> 00:35:06.710 nothing happens to us. And they'll 00:35:06.720 --> 00:35:08.390 explain like, here's the radar, here's 00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:09.750 the plotter, or here's this, here's 00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:12.630 that. And most times you're like, "The 00:35:12.640 --> 00:35:15.190 radar super important. We need to make 00:35:15.200 --> 00:35:17.190 sure this radar is good." He's like, "I, 00:35:17.200 --> 00:35:19.030 you know, either myself or the third or 00:35:19.040 --> 00:35:20.950 second cap like, you know, before we 00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.030 leave, while it's still sunlight out, we 00:35:23.040 --> 00:35:24.630 need to make sure that this radar is 00:35:24.640 --> 00:35:27.349 good. Go down and grab me a roll of 00:35:27.359 --> 00:35:29.910 aluminum foil and the biggest pot you 00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:31.270 can find [snorts] 00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:33.349 and bring it back. It's it's it's 00:35:33.359 --> 00:35:35.670 sensitive to metal, right? So, I need 00:35:35.680 --> 00:35:38.069 something that I can make sure that this 00:35:38.079 --> 00:35:39.910 thing's working." And so he comes up and 00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:42.150 he's got a full roll of aluminum foil 00:35:42.160 --> 00:35:43.270 and a pot. I'm like, "All right, now 00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:44.630 this is going to be silly, but put the 00:35:44.640 --> 00:35:45.990 pot on your head and I'm going to wrap 00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:47.510 you in aluminum foil and I need you to 00:35:47.520 --> 00:35:50.230 go to the back deck as far as you can 00:35:50.240 --> 00:35:52.710 away from the radar. I know it's silly. 00:35:52.720 --> 00:35:55.030 Just do it." And you have them walk 150 00:35:55.040 --> 00:35:56.550 ft back and stand on the back. And then 00:35:56.560 --> 00:35:58.630 you call them on the PA. Okay. All 00:35:58.640 --> 00:36:01.990 right. Put your arms out. All right. Now 00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:05.190 go to your left. Go to your left. go and 00:36:05.200 --> 00:36:07.109 you the whole time this PA is as loud as 00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:08.950 you can hear it in every direction. And 00:36:08.960 --> 00:36:10.950 again, you got every captain on every 00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:13.305 boat knows exactly what's going 00:36:13.315 --> 00:36:13.910 [laughter] 00:36:13.920 --> 00:36:15.990 what's going on. We're tuning the radar, 00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:17.430 baby. We're tuning the radar. 00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:19.030 >> So, you're talking about messing messing 00:36:19.040 --> 00:36:20.310 with mates. [laughter] 00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.790 >> We used to have goats on the island. So, 00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:25.030 every every day when we would leave, 00:36:25.040 --> 00:36:28.470 we'd be next to an island with goats. 00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:32.470 And uh the one mate I had, he was pretty 00:36:32.480 --> 00:36:34.470 shy and wouldn't talk. 00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:36.390 And all I got from him for the first two 00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:39.589 years was 00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:40.550 >> that was all I got from him. 00:36:40.560 --> 00:36:42.150 >> Just head signals and 00:36:42.160 --> 00:36:44.390 >> head. I thought he was a mute until I 00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:45.349 saw him like 00:36:45.359 --> 00:36:46.950 >> with his buddy and they were like 00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:48.310 chirping back and forth at each other 00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:49.910 and I was like, "Holy smokes, he can 00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:50.950 talk." I thought I had a kid with 00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:53.260 disabilities, you know. And 00:36:53.270 --> 00:36:55.349 [clears throat] so I got it from Caleb 00:36:55.359 --> 00:36:57.430 and he said he would make his charters 00:36:57.440 --> 00:36:59.190 yell at the goats to try and get him to 00:36:59.200 --> 00:36:59.990 faint. 00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:00.710 >> Yeah. 00:37:00.720 --> 00:37:03.750 >> And so I got the mate.
