You\'re never safe...

A 65-year-old man on a fishing trip along the Georgia coast was injured Wednesday when a 30-pound barracuda jumped into his boat.

``They were fishing for Spanish mackerel and had stopped the boat to re-adjust the lines when this fish jumped over 30 feet from the water into the salon and hit this guy in the hand,'' said Judy Helmey, owner of Miss Judy Charters. ``It broke his hand and cut his finger really badly.''

Re: You\'re never safe...

I suppose hes going to sue Miss Judy Charters now

No warning signs regarding low flying barracudas

No safety nets to prevent passengers being hit by fish leaping about

Pasengers no supplied with appropriate protective clothing

This is going to cost

There's the story of the single hander, standing in his galley one morning wondering what to have for breakfast, when this flying fish pops in through the scuttle and lands in his frying pan....
