I am sorry for the death of "Tony", I wish he could have listen to reason. Nothing will bring him back, so I hope everyone learns from this. I would not have stopped Tony from diving if he were a diver on the "Miss Lindsey", he would only find another boat, but he would have heard me shoot that rig down in front of everyone, every trip. There is a special VBtech meeting tonight 7pm at LDC, come learn how to avoid this from happening to YOU.
