What Capsizes Fishing Boat!

Yikes, that is scary!

Explain that one to your insurance company!

Act of God, not covered

In the early 70's I used to trailer my 16' Starcraft skiff out to Montauk and on real calm days fish the midway rips halfway to Block. I saw whales swimming near me several times during those trips but thankfully none ever actually breached.

If I had seen that video back, then I probably would have never left Lake Montauk!!!😱

This was bound to happen as whales started concentrating on bunker in northern MA, NH & Southern Maine restricted waters, while folks started live-lining bunker for bass in those areas.

Wouldn't be surprised if the same happens along the Western South Shore. Lunge feeding and breaching whales are a fact of life. Important to steer clear of the landing zone...
