Reached Shore Fast | 快速靠岸

English Original

A friend of mine was towing his boat home from a fishing trip on Lake Huron when his car broke down. Without his cell phone, he thought he might use his marine radio to call for roadside assistance.

He climbed into the boat, switched on the radio, and said, "Mayday, mayday."

A Coast Guard officer responded, "State your location."

"I-75, two miles south of Standish."

After a long pause, the officer asked, "How fast were you going when you reached shore?"


中文翻译

我的一位朋友在休伦湖钓完鱼,开车拖着船回家时,车子抛锚了。他没带手机,但想到或许可以用船用无线电呼叫道路救援。

他爬进船里,打开无线电说道:“求救,求救。”

一名海岸警卫队警官回应道:“报告你的位置。”

“I-75号公路,斯坦迪什以南两英里处。”

一阵漫长的沉默后,警官问道:“你靠岸时速度有多快?”
