Mike dug in the motor of his fourwheeler...what was the problem? "Aha!" he said..as he pulled out a broken spark plug. He quickly replaced it with a new one, fired up his ham radio to the local repeater frequency, and started the engine. "Yahoo..." "It works!" Mike tore down to the farm they owned and when he got on the driveway, he floored it. Just then, he heard someone call on the repeater. What was he saying? The engine noise was just too loud for Mike to decipher the message, so he slowed down, and heard the voice again....

"Mayday...Mayday, this is KE4FGF. Need help immediately."

Oh my gosh, thought Mike...he'd better contact this KE4FGF right away! "KE4FGF this is KG4BIS, what is the nature of your emergancy?"

"I'm in my racing yacht, called "The SeaWolf." I just hit a submerged reef, and water is coming in fast on the port. Need help quick. Coordinates according to my GPS are "30.375 N and 28.765W, please help!"

Darkness was falling and there wasn't much for Mike to do. But he did remember his own racing boat that seated two with a radio in it. Hmm.

What Does Mike Do Next?

1. Rescues KE4FGF in His Racing Boat.
2. Calls the Coast Guard.
3. What would YOU do?
