James... the line connecting the two platforms was telephone and internet connection and that wasn't a "PORT-O-POOPER" it was a phone booth... "just joking"... I like the waterslide on the Deluxe tower...
Actually when we stopped and talked with these guys they were very respectful and told us that they had been there for about 2 weeks... they were fishing the tides and that line was used to hang many more baited lines from to catch fish as the tides would come in and out....
I asked if they would mind if I shot some video and one guy spoke perfect english and said he didn't mind but "Please"not to include him in any videos... I also asked if they checked with the port captain if it would be OK for them to do this, he said no they didn't....
The very next morning my kayak buddy (Mark McMahon) who was staying in Cholla, went out in the bay at low tide and there wasn't a trace of these guys or the two towers to be found, everything was cleaned out... they had vanished completely without a trace...
I wonder if my questioning if they had asked for the port captains permission scared them off..? I hope not, they were having way too much fun... this reminded me of something I would have done at that age... well hell, at any age...
