He actually called 911 first. He's another idiot in a small boat with 4 people out to rescue the fishermen. Where were they going to put them when they reach them? Good Thing Coast Guard got their before they did.

Wow, what a hero. Good thing they were safe on a jetty instead of getting in the boat with Ted.
