Mikey & Caio’s boat sank. Caio got bit by shark

Donation protected
Mikey and Caio spent the last 4-5 months rebuilding this boat. They spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours to make it the way they needed it to be to be able to commercially fish for a living. It’s been finished for 2 weeks and they have brought in a couple of really nice ones!
Last night, they were out fishing. They were sleeping, and woke up to the boat full of water tipping over and dumping them and everything they own out. The boat sank, along with all their extremely expensive poles, fish finder, and other gear. They were left drifting in the ocean holding onto the only thing still afloat… the fish box. Being miles off shore, it was a pretty scary thing to happen. Then a shark came and took 2 bites out of Caio’s leg and foot. He’s in agonizing pain, and they put him inside the fish box. Mikey climbed up on top and tended to his wounds the best he could with what they had. Nothing. They were drifting for hours before a boat came by and was able to take them to shore. The ambulance took Caio to the hospital where he is now recovering from surgery. I just talked to him and he is going to be ok. Mikey came home with a fish box, that undoubtedly saved their lives, but does nothing to help him recover his only means of income… the boat.
times are hard for everyone, but if you even have an extra $5 or $10, it all adds up to help them replace their boat and gear so they can make more stories that we a hear about and love. If you can, it will be greatly appreciated.
