I fished many many times on the RR3 and I used to charter out the whole boat for our group and Jorge was always the star and chief mischief maker. Each year, the group of guys would do a "group shot" along the stern rail. It was not like your typical group shot...guys will be guys...
Everyone would line up wearing nothing but their boots, rod belts and harnesses, sunglasses and hat and not much else. Basically a silly bunch of white butts posed along the rail. It was pretty funny and alot of beer was involved. 20 something naked goofs mugging for the camera!
Well, one year, everyone was lined up. The crew was snapping everyone's photos and cracking up. Well, out charges Jorge and Andy Cates with the water hoses and spraying us all down. Naked bodies were running and diving everywhere like white cockroaches scattering from the onslaught of water and Jorge was chasing guys up and down the rail with the full blast water hose. I can still hear him laughing his head off screaming, "Come to Jorge!" No one escaped. No one laughed harder.
I still have and use his wahoo bombs he made me over the years down here in La Paz. What a class guy and sweatheart of a gentleman. Que Dios te bendigas, amigo. Vaya con los angeles en el cielo y nos vemos pronto con los atun grandes y wahoos gigantes!
