Summary
Don and Art are sitting on their charter boat when the Phoebe Lee (the boat that Michelle had chartered) came into Bowman Harbor. Scooter hails the guys, and they decide to hit one of the local bars. Everyone except Michelle orders beer, but she insists on a double of cheap bourbon, which she followed with a few more.
A loudmouth guy at the next table calls her a teenybopper, and she challenges him to a drinking contest, which she wins hands down. She and Scooter link up with the guys, and all 5 head out the door. Two guys (friends of the loudmouth) dive towards Michelle; Crystal and Michelle overpower them very quickly. Scooter suggests that they be buried in the sand, with a sign that says: "We lost a bet. Tickle our feet but don't dig us out, no matter how much we beg and plead." Crystal returns to the Phoebe Lee and Michelle and Scooter spend the night with Don and Art on their boat. They agree to move on to Elbow Cay the next morning.
