Always trouble out in that shithole:

Two people were in police custody Friday night following a boat chase that began in Port Moody, B.C., the Canadian Coast Guard said.

The incident began at Reed Point Marina around 8 p.m. The operator of a 12-metre, black-and-white speedboat took off when bailiffs attempted to repossess the boat, the Coast Guard said.

The speedboat, with two people on board, struck at least two anchored boats when it sped from the marina.

Port Moody police called for help from the Canadian Coast Guard and the Vancouver police, the Coast Guard said.

A Vancouver police boat, the Coast Guard cutter Osprey and the RCMP's chopper, Air 1, were all deployed to assist in the chase.

The chopper spotted the speedboat and authorities managed to stop it.

They have to hightail it out of The Mood because they know Trazzalini will have them put in cement shoes.

Maybe that's why Geo is low to respond - maybe he's swimming with the fishes...

The delay in my response reflects the fact that I just got released from the slammer at 11:00 am -- I was not swimming with no f'n fishes!~

Almost got away with the boat -- I was going to take Mr. Brown to a Mariners game and NOT have to cross the border.
