I managed to run out of gas in Bayou LaLoutre last night coming in.

I went ahead and called the service I pay to come get my fool arse or bring some gas. Boat US, Sea Tow.

Turns out they have to dispatch from Bay St Louis, so it took 2 1/2 hours. Got my boat all neat and organized during that time. I had a couple of potential tows go by but I figured it good to make them come out, knowing they don't have any service nearby they ought to get something more readily available down there.

I have a much better concept of my range now

I once managed to let my brand new truck lock me out within the first 5 minutes of arriving about 50 miles deep on national seashore (4x4 territory). I say "it locked me out" because at the time I did not realize my new truck would automatically lock if I left the door slightly ajar. We arrived, I got out to piss, and it locked Had to climb the dunes to get signal to call someone to come out and unlock; came close to breaking the window

life lessons am i rite

Paid for the service for 10 years and never used it. I make one call and they have to come from BSL. Why inconvenience someone else? They ought to have someone on call in Chalmette at least and maybe think about having something easier for a gas run, like a local.

Of course I got eaten alive between 8 and 9.
