This Shouldn’t Be A Thing – Let’s Go Yachting Edition

Good morning. Welcome back to Matt Nair on air. Jane Matt Nair, Greg Bock. Dr. Slide on the board coming to you from our home at Radio Park here in Racine. You can join us. You can call you can text.

8557524842. Leave a comment if you're watching in the live stream on Facebook YouTube and what used to be Twitter. I just wanted to back to what we were talking about before. But being there for each other. Yeah, feel what you need to feel. But we have to move forward. Try and find something positive in town from Jackson texted in listening on W a UK. He said, Jane, how about focusing on the upcoming spring judicial race. Yes. That's it.

Great. Great point. Tom. We will have another Supreme Court opening the Wisconsin Supreme Court in April. We will be going back to the polls. Yep. Let's not re undue the progress that we've made by getting Janet Proto say what's on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Let's not elect another Republican who will then undo the fair maps that we just got and then do it again the next year. And let's not have a Supreme Court that goes back and forth and back and forth. We're all exhausted. Yeah.

All right. 1152. That means Calvin. It is time for this shouldn't be a thing. If you ever have a thing, you think should not be sent it into Greg and me. At Jane says at civic media. US J and E. S. A. Y. S. Jane says at civic media. US from the Milwaukee Journal. Sentinel's clear read. Headline reads Coast Guard says crane. Maybe needed to move boat stranded near

Bradford Beach since October 13th. After nearly four weeks stuck in the sand, folks might be wondering if the abandoned boat near Bradford Beach is simply here to stay the 33 foot Chris Kraft Romer ran a ground behind the rock wall between a restaurant and McKinley Marina on October 13th when the owners ran out of gas.

And so they left their 33 foot boat there. Let's okay. You know what? That is a night. That's a nice looking boat. That's I won't lie. I just want to see. It is a nice looking boat. That's a pretty big boat. That's that's a boat. I would definitely flee the country in.

No one was hurt in the incident officials say they didn't immediately move the boat because no lives were in danger and it wasn't blocking any federal waterways.

The Coast Guard says they're working with a commercial towing and salvage company to remove it. Though the owners, I would hope are responsible for hiring and paying the salvage company.

They had hoped to get it moved by October 20th, but high winds and waves has repeatedly made that impossible. Thursday morning, the US Coast Guard said high winds this week to further pushed back retrieving the boat.

And now they made need a crane to get it out since it is lodged so deeply into the sand.

This boat. I'm just looking it up right now that someone just said to leave cost anywhere between $99,000 and $250,000.

When you love to have leave your boat on the beach money like that were like $250,000. That's that I'll buy a new one and they ran out of gas.

That's just poor planning. All right. Come on. That's just that's a dumb. I am baffled.

Also, I and you disagree with me and I understand why you disagree with me, but Jane, I know science. I feel like just get like 10, 20 people down to the beach, give it a go. He's whole.

I don't know that that would quite work put it right back in the water. The Coast Guard says again, they now they need a crane because it is sunk so deeply into the sand.

In the 25 days, it's been stranded off of Bradford Beach. The boat has caught the attention of social media. No surprise.

We've that board passer by and local media. Someone even put an eye closed wall skis sticker on this, which is an iconic Milwaukee bar.

Oh, yeah. When the boat was first abandoned, a kayak was on board. Somebody stole it or it was recovered by the owners.

Who are these people? I want to talk to these Jane. They're idiots. And also here's the thing is when the if they I mean 25 days, it'll probably be another couple days before they get to it.

A crane to get rid of. It's going to be put into in the impound because it's been abandoned, which means it's going to go up for auction and someone's probably going to buy it for like 10 grand.

Oh, we'll have to watch out for that. Right. Civic media could use a boat. Civic media.

Hey, Sage. Hey, Sage, can we get a boat? Can we get a boat? Please, I found one. It's on the beach. It's ours if we just get there first.

All right, that does it for today's episode of this shouldn't be a thing.

Let's go yachting addition.

Coming up on Monday, if you have heard him, you will want to join us. Mr. Global Matt Randolph will be here to talk all things oil and gas.

Very, very knowledgeable. The man knows the oil and gas industry. He's been working in it for 30 years.

And he actually just announced he is in a partnership now with the publication the dispatch. Oh, wow.

Yes. I just saw that on Twitter. I saw that on Twitter yesterday.

Do we have famous friends? He's really he's wonderful. Yes, he is.

He can explain very complicated things related to oil and gas and energy in the US.

And we can talk about what the presumptive or president-elect has said about drill baby drill and how that's going to get us out of all of our economic woes.

Which I would actually, if you're interested in doing this, go back and listen to the other interviews we've done with him. This will be our third, I believe.

Third or fourth. Third or fourth. And see what we've already covered because, you know, what's coming you'll want to know about.

Absolutely. Thank you, Greg and Calvin, all of our engineers, everyone across civic media, without you, absolutely nothing works.

Thank you most of all for calling and for texting and for listening. It means the world. I hope you find some joy over the weekend, even just a little bit.

And you have the chance to share it news coming up next followed by Todd Alba. Keep it right here on the civic media radio network. We will see you Monday.
