bluffman2

is that boat "Tar Baby" the one that hit the jetties in OB..if so im glad they were able to get her fixed and back on the water.....

bailey88

Same owner but I believe they have gone back to a 47' Cabo convertible. Not sure what the status of the 61' Weaver that hit the rocks is.Definitely a new captain as well.

LITECATCH

they towed "Tar Baby" from orange beach to pensacola back in april. it is on the hard at pensacola ship yard.
