A U.S. Coast Guard crew from Station Key West have recovered a floating tiki hut bar that was reported stolen near in the Florida Keys
Unsurprisingly, the person aboard showed signs of intoxication and he was taken into custody by Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Officials said the vessel was located near Hawk’s Channel.
Local reports say the man was found slumped over the wheel of the charter tiki hut at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, giving you an indication of how rough his night was.
The boat is owned Cruisin’ Tiki Key West, which offers the boats up for charter for BYOB booze cruises.
“A little tiki excitement today which was slightly more eventful than your typical tiki cruise,” the company wrote in a Facebook post. Thankfully ‘The Squeaky Tiki’ was returned with only minimal damage.
