6 Portugese Commandos and Aussie Mick

6 Portugese Commandos and Aussie Mick

6 of the 17 Portugese Commandos that were protecting us on the Island spent 20 minutes trying to get their boat going, got out the battery jump starter, started tapping their alternator having a good look over and discussion etc etc.  Aussie Mick says should I go help, wanders up through the macho men and has one look, puts the man overboard clip back on and kicks it over.  Lol.  One could only hope they were better with their weapons than they were with their other equipment.  I took a whole series of photos to capture the moment, but this one was probably the best, was funny as to watch. Oh and the boat in the background was the 2nd best boat in the fleet, nothing else came close (ex-pat), mostly outriggers.
