The bar was still pretty gnarly this morning. Some good sets coming through for the surfers but not a good place to be in a small boat as two men and their dog discovered around 6.20am, about 15 minutes before a 1.9m high tide. They were almost out when a couple of waves stood up right out back. A smallish one set them up and a boomer took them beyond recovery point and they took on too much water when they landed to stay afloat. No one hurt, fortunately, and the strong sweep across the river mouth deposited the boat and its occupants on the North Shore within 15 scary minutes of the incident. The dog recovered first and could be seen running up and down on the beach with a stick. With the help of a few beach goers they righted the boat and later hitched a tow (from the Noosa Coast Guard) back to the Gympie Terrace boat ramp. It's blowing 15 to 20 knots from the south east at the moment so wouldn't be too exciting out there anyway. Background Music: 'Still Standing'... by Anno Domini Beats. www.fishingnoosa.com.au
