Captain Incompetent is about the nine times the author, Bob Hoelzle, nearly lost his life on the water. Included are other dumb things the author has done, making this non-fiction book 27 short chapters. Those snafus include incidents other than those that almost cost him his life at sea. Most of the action took place on the Forgotten Coast of Florida, which is in the panhandle south of Tallahassee. If you decide to go fishing with the author, Captain Incompetent, please be sure your life insurance policy is up to date!
