Setting the meme of this aside, it's nice that he didn't just report it and fuck off.

I'm curious how marine emergency calls work. Maybe I'll look into it. Either way, it's nice that it happened.

Afaik you have to respond if you're the closest vessel.

So I need a dingy and the marine traffic app and to have an "accident" while a certain vessel would be imposed to save me? Then I get to do some yachting and chumming it up with gilbert grape and some <25 year old babes?

You have to do something really stupid though in order for them to take it seriously, like claim you're going to cross the Atlantic on a pool float, level of stupid.
