I'm at the fuel dock pier with the dinghy at CGB getting some ice. I see 2 mechanics from BVI Yacht Charter calling to round-up to a ride to a Helia needing something, I offer them a ride as we were ready to go. About 200 feet off the dock the dinghy motor stops running. Within about 2 seconds one of the mechanics sees a split in the fuel line, pulls out a leatherman , cuts off bad portion and fixes the problem. Thanks BVI Yacht Charter guys.

Great story. Sometime, at least, what goes around comes around.

A great story indeed. And a great reason to carry a Leatherman.
