Watching this video over and over helped me to appreciate the work these captains put into doing their not so easy job. Poling a raft for 2-3 hours takes dedication, tolerance and of course, muscle. Captain Motor was a straight professional with a cool, calm demeanor. Tommy hooked us up with him. I wanted to go out later in the day so that we were returning right before dark. Captain Motor was fine with that. I felt he deserved more that what I paid him. But my budget kept me from doing more than what we agreed on. But I promise to take another drift with him when I return.

The music in the video is “My Girl Josephine”. A Fats Domino remake by Super Cat and Jack Radics.
