I absolutely love these vids, I don't get down by the Detroit often so these are a special treat. Thank you for all the effort that goes into making these!

You should show what is going on after you pull alongside.

boatnerd I thought the Westcott II sank in a capsizing accident in 2007 killing both the Captain and co-captain?

The Mad-Mapper On 23 October 2001, J. W. Westcott II sank in the deep water under the Ambassador Bridge while caught in the wake of MT Sidsel Knutsen, a much larger ship the boat was serving. The captain and one other crew member were killed and two others were rescued. J. W. Westcott II was later salvaged, refurbished and returned to service.
