yes I got that impression, was good to see some good size ribs even cabin ones getting some air time!! did you see the way the guy lifted and righted that sunken boat and slingshot the whole thing that was continually sinking on to the beach, again with a rib, with 2 x 250's on the back! epic skills

Not where I am. Gas in my area runs 40 to 50 cents above the national average price, at the discount, off-brand gas stations. Probably stilll cheaper than in Europe/UK, but not exactly pocket change, either.

We pay about $10 per gallon on the roadside or $12 waterside , thats why we think yours is pocket change

Watched it tonight. Very good watch, very impressive tow technique for the upturned boat, even if it was worthless when it got to the beach!!!
