Mike as usual you are full of shit. You are right about the year with DQ, but that is it. I have for your benefit added a couple of photos to my site, they have the Lobster in question and the date on the photo along with the guy who got it......not me. But if it hurts your feelings so bad how he got it I will call him and tell him what a bad boy he was. Look here for the lobster.... www.capt-jt.com/4adry.htm Now as for me and my boat..... when you call see if he has the balls to admit he asked me to run for his shop when it first opened and Dusty asked me to Capt his boat before he stopped booking through there. Then ask about the last time I came in there and I caught him saying bullshit that was not true about an accident on the Miss Lindsey and he did not know I was on the boat when it happened and I confronted him to his face over it. I have my witnesses who were there when this happened. Get your dive buddy who sent me the photos of you guys removing artifacts off the Vitric when you thought it was a protected wreck, have him give me permission to place them on my site since he has his copy right mark on them and everyone will see the real you or are you the pussy I say you are and won't do it. I will not altar them or change them.......the title he put on them says it all. Just have him give me permission is all I need. Next time don't be such a pussy and add me to the email address when you answer.
