A drunk Florida man was arrested after he was caught operating a floating tiki bar that was reportedly stolen, the US Coast Guard announced. Agents from the Coast Guard’s Key West station found the man on the stolen tiki hut near Hawk’s Channel off the coast of the Florida Keys, the agency wrote in a Wednesday tweet.
“Don’t drink and boat!” the tweet quipped. The man appeared intoxicated and was taken into custody by officers from Florida’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the Coast Guard said.
The vessel belongs to operator Cruisin’ Tikis Key West, which runs a small fleet of floating tiki huts for six-person party charters. The huts are self-propelled and come equipped with a skipper, water, ice and coolers; the charterer is responsible for alcoholic beverages.
“A little tiki excitement today which was slightly more eventful than your typical tiki cruise. You don’t have to steal a tiki to go cruisin’!” wrote Cruisin’ Tikis Key West in a social media post. “The Squeaky Tiki was returned with minimal damage. Thanks to FishMonster Key West, US Coast Guard Sector Key West and Florida Fish and Wildlife for all your help!”
