Several years ago I built a model 36 footer that I learned to run in Depoe Bay Oregon. I took it to one of our Coast Guard luncheons and it triggered Andy inot telling his story, a story that many didn't know about. The telling took about 30 minutes and everyone was in awe listening and imagining what was going on. Only the movie could re-tell the heroism that took place that night. I'll miss Andy and the quiet been-there, done-that and can-do attitude. He exemplified the true Coast Guard hero. Smooth sailing Andy!
