Well, this was my first time being back there, and I have to say, it’s definitely an area for flats boats because it is super shallow in many places. There is a channel that runs behind Sister Keys, but it’s unmarked and the chartplotter on the boat doesn’t show it either. Needless to say, this guy found out the hard way where not to go and made the walk of shame out to my boat to retrieve the towline. To the guy’s credit, they didn’t complain about having to walk out to me and they were able to tie a bowline properly after a quick demonstration to top it off!

But as soon as I wrapped up that job, a new dispatch came in for a boat that had run aground on the southeast side of Sister Keys. Now, this was my first time being back in that particular area, and let me tell you, it's definitely a spot made for flats boats. The water is incredibly shallow in a lot of places, and while there is a channel that runs behind Sister Keys, it’s completely unmarked. Even the boat’s chartplotter offered no help at all. Unfortunately, this boater learned firsthand just how tricky it can be to navigate those waters. They ended up stuck and had to make what we like to call the "walk of shame" — wading through the shallows to reach my boat and retrieve the towline. To their credit, they handled it like champs. No complaints, no frustration — just a willingness to do what was necessary. And after a quick demonstration, they even tied a perfect bowline knot to secure the towline! This rescue was a reminder of just how unpredictable boating can be, especially in areas with shallow, unmarked waters. If you’re planning a trip near Sister Keys, make sure to do your homework and stay cautious!
