Offshore Explorer with Scott Dodgson

Repo Man

Episode Summary

This week I share the story of my time as a repo man. If you are around long enough in the marine industry you will get some pretty crazy jobs. Repossessing a yacht in Columbia from a cartel member was both crazy and dangerous.

Episode Notes

Repo Man. I never liked taking a boat from someone. I would be devastated if it happened to me. Banks just want their money. They don't care. I share a story on how I got into the business. Driving for Vessel Assist made me familiar with what boats were around and how to find them. I was approached by a recovery agency to find a couple of boats. I found them and became on of the favorites of the agency for getting har to get boats. I traveled to Hawaii, Mexico, and Columbia to repo boats. I share the details of a scam for stealing small boats and sending the hulls to Asia.
