RB08 Mission - Crew sails out to Rabbit Island

Aloha Good People!
The following picture is from DB of the NOAA folks on their way to Rabbit Island to remove the hook from RB08. As I was posting the blog and looking at the photo well it made me thing of something.... see if you agree. ( Read the lyrics below the photo ).

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
a tale of a fateful trip,
that started from this tropic port,
aboard this tiny ship.
The mate was a mighty sailin' man,
the Skipper brave and sure,
five passengers set sail that day,
for a three hour tour,
a three hour tour.
The weather started getting rough,
the tiny ship was tossed.
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
the Minnow would be lost.
The Minnow would be lost.
