Towboat operator fights manatee speed fine

Article Abstract:

U.S. Magistrate David A. Baker has fined former Florida SeaTow boat operator, Rick Rescott, for speeding through a manatee protection zone. The decision puts Rescott's career in jeopardy. Rescott had contended that he was responding to a report of a sinking vessel, and indeed Talon, a boat owned by John Overchuck, was taking on water due to faulty bilge pump though there was no danger of it sinking. Aggrieved, Rescott intends to appeal the ruling.
