Folly Cove 8/8/10

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Got in two nice dives today. Lot of short lobster.....
Lot of boats in the cove. Anchor drop almost on top of us!!!!

First visit by game wardens....they measured the one keeper we had...we were safe, ha.

They were very nice and chatted for a little while. No interest in the activity from the boat!!.

New England diving....cold water diving at its best!!!!

Watch out for a Lobster boat named "Silva Fox". he is on probation for trying to molest divers. report to police if you have an encounter.

Mostly all shorts there due to the amount of Pots.

I was next to Folly's having some clam bellies at the Lobster Pool. It was a very nice day to go diving. Not nice to hear someone dropped an anchor near you though. Very bad because I am sure they saw your bubbles...unless you were on a rebreather.

Molest as in what manner?

Here is part of an article on Silver Fox? Is that the same one?

Fishing boat captain dies in attempt to rescue crewman off Nantucket
By John M. Guilfoil
Globe Staff / April 25, 2010

When a crewman on his fishing boat went overboard off Nantucket in the predawn darkness yesterday, John Zuzick snapped into action.

The captain of the 60-foot clam dredge Silver Fox donned a survival suit and dove into the chilly sea. He held on to the crewman and reassured him, telling him everything would be all right.

In the end, the crewman would survive, rescued by the Coast Guard. But Zuzick, the rescuer, would not make it.

Zuzick, 53, of Harwich, died yesterday in the accident, which happened at about 5 a.m. about 2 miles east of Sankaty Head Light, on the east coast of Nantucket.

“He’d do it again tomorrow,’’ Velna Zuzick, the captain’s wife, said last night.

Zuzick said she met crewman Bill Silva at the hospital yesterday, where he told her that he had clung to her husband for almost a half-hour before Coast Guard rescuers arrived.
