Ease my mind.

His batteries went dead. He tried to jump from the troll motor batteries and they did not have enough juice to turn over his big motor. Like I said, it took about 1/2 hour to hook up and run on a high idle to get enough of a charge to start the big motor. I have no regrets about taking the time, I do know some who would send help back, but not me. Yes he said thanks at the time, but never mentioned the problem to anyone.

I think your mind should be at ease then. If he thanked you at the time, that should be good enough.

Think of it this way, if you'd helped him, he thanked you and DIDN'T win the tournament, then the outcome would have been the same and you wouldn't have thought twice about it.

Thank You, for all your kind words. My mind is at ease. Rest asured that if I'm ever in that position (winning a large tournament) if any help has been given, I will thank those that made the win possible.
The winner of this tournament and I fished the whole week within site of each other. I left his area alone until he would leave for weigh in. He is a very good angler and a nice man. I marked it up as to him being so excided about the win.
