Yeah, word is he was running in a storm hit a cut off rig. It sits well above the water line but visability was bad, couple people got hurt and the boat was toast. Looney Tuna was the boat name and it was sparkling new. I've fished the Freeman hulls on two differant occasions, they are REALLY nice!

Sounds like a bad break...specially when people get hurt...hope they'll be OK...sparkling new?...must be one of Billy's newer folks down there...two guides were his 1st two customers several years back when he was still cold molding the 33...

I'm just glad to hear someone else here has been on one of those boats in addition to me...
Awesome ride...I had the wheel for a bit and throttling up those twin 350s is a KICK!!...

Have you seen the 40?
