    Default USVI runs off LA Sportfisherman for flying battle flag

    ST. THOMAS — Yacht Haven Grande on Wednesday issued a statement regarding the incident that occurred at Brewers Bay on Sunday, where a vessel with three Caucasian men was seen prominently displaying a Confederate flag, swiftly igniting the ire of the Virgin Islands community, including Acting Governor Osbert Potter.

    “The Confederate flag is not welcomed, not accepted, nor tolerated in the Virgin Islands under any circumstances,” Mr. Potter said. “The Confederate flag represents divisiveness, bigotry, slavery, and oppression. This is totally out of line with what we as Virgin Islands residents embrace, which is unity and acceptance of all people, regardless of race, color, religion or creed. The flying of the flag is totally offensive to Virgin Islanders, and I will not tolerate this blatant display of hatred to our people.”

    Replace the words "Confederate flag" with "Islam" and replace "Virgin Islands" with "America".

    That boat is a badass ride anyway you slice it.
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    Fuck billfishing out of that thing. John Bayliss builds one of the nicest boats out there, but that boat is nothing more than a 90 foot yacht with outriggers.

    It's hard to be more corrupt than the USVI. I wouldn't even have been to that level if named King, dictator, what have you.
