Now THIS is a boat call!

I had a very odd call only a few days ago that entailed something about a boat. It seemed rather routine, having a topic simply about a boat being stuck. I thought it was perhaps at a dock or whatnot, which is easy enough to fix, but I was quite wrong. Upon appearing I found that the boat was stuck in the middle of a group of trees, and yet, there was no land visible. I also checked the radar, and there was still no visible land. Then I proceeded to check the co-ordinates I was at, and it was at -2 on the z-axis which is normal for a boat, so that threw out my theory that perhaps he had somehow gotten stuck "under" or in the land - thus making it invisible. It was repaired shortly by a GM, but I still can't say exactly what caused it. It's undoubtedly the oddest thing I've ever seen happen. I hope that the picture will work, but it might not. If it doesn't I'll just try again... I'm certain you'll all want to see this one.
