like ferm said. He was backing down on the fish and swamped the boat. I was on a Ocean Yacht call the "Wrecking Crew" and we had hooked onto a 400 pound blue one out of rudee inlet. I was on the boat as a bystander. Sammy backed down on that fish so hard there was 10 inches of water in the cockpit!!! I can see were a boat could take on water and sink like that. he was flooding water in her before he slipped and fell....had to. he was being tuff on the reverse gears either way just like my dads buddy Sammy was being. excitement can really screw your day up!!!!
