Our Awesome Next Boat Neighbor!

We love our neighbors.

Who would have ever thought my three favorite neighbors would be a gillnet fisherman, a squid light boat fisherman and the rescuer of the fuel-ess and saver of sunk pangas and people who run into the island and people who wrap their props, the owner of Vessel Assist.
Ok, well the saver of boaters in trouble makes sense, but two commercial fishermen?
We love them.
Helps that they love (and dogsit) our dog...
And they are nice guys.
And they don't complain about my cooking.
And they save lives.
All three of them.

The gillnetter being the most recent.

Complete with video, his nice face and our boat at the end!

And our local newspaper write up:

And photo I stole from the newspaper...

Only because he never slows down enough for me to take a picture.
