Actually I had just pulled it in close enough to board when it started to rev up, and Rob was on pretty quick, just before it went bezerk and shut it down but it had no effect.
Thats when up in the sky what did I see? A bird, a plane, no, it's super Dave.

As it started to rev up, I thought it was fuel starved as Ridge mentioned and that it was about to shut down...but when it kept building RPMs w/nobody onboard, I started clickin' the shutter, cuz I was pretty sure SOMETHING was gonna happen and I wanted to document it, good or bad...glad it turned out good...there are a couple of shots in the sequence I didn't post..if anybody thinks they might be helpful in figuring out just what happened, lemme know and I'll post 'em all up...

It started happening pretty fast...and I was too far away to get to it and do anything...and wouldn't have known what to do had I been in the boat...figured pics better than nothing...The right man got to it first no doubt...
