T&T: Twins/Singles & the law of perverse opposites

[Bill Allen]

I didn't bother to adress picking up divers on the occasion something wrong 
happens. Had another capt. on the boat that runs a single screw dive boat. 
The anchor line cut on a piece of the wreck and we went adrift, spun the 
boat back up to the lift bag and picked everyone up in 4 ft seas. Took a 
little water over the coaming (I love that, so sport fishy). The other 
captain said it would have taken me an hr to pick them up by the time he got 
turned around and picked up the 6 guys in the water. That said it's quite a 
different situation then what the list deals with. My dive boat running 
sometimes up to 70 miles off shore want that power and speed. My personal 
boat where I'm smelling the flowers 7kts is fine actually thats what I run 
my hatt at. Bill
