Oregon Inlet claims another boat

[garagenc]

One of the locals in my county went out of Oregon Inlet fishing Friday with some of his friends (small craft advisory was in effect) and when he came in he didn't post a watch to the stern of his boat. A stern wave caught and crashed over the stern and then the next wave crashed in the boat and flipped it. He and his buddies had to wait on top of the hull for the coast guard to rescue them. The 23ft boat was upside down and had twin 200 hp E tec's. The boat is a complete loss so the coast guard says.

The guy had 0 experience with Oregon Inlet and won't listen to anyone ever so the boys who know him say he got what he deserved and learned a lesson that maybe now will make him listen to info when someone is willing to give it.
