New years day incident

A few words from Brad.....

"Just a quick note to all of you who have sent myself and Richard your kind comments since the accident yesterday in Exmouth.

Both Richard and I are fine, but very brused!! I got released today and Rich will be out tomorrow, I want to send out a big thanks to everybody that helped during and after the incident.

Lastly a massive thanks to Tim Mayers, not only did you help with the incident but he got the boat recovered and I believe had the engine running by midnight (what kept you mate!!).

Thanks to all who assisted.

Regards,

Brad."

All the best to those involved,

Sorry to hear of a New Years incident, not quite the way one would like to start the New Year, but happy to hear all involved are alive and kicking ...

Going by that nasty sea creature Bluefin posted what a brute you guys had a lucky escape with ears like that he probably sensed your arrival in the water from Asia and with those huge lips you guys could of been sucked to death
