Mark Castlow, the owner of Dragonfly Boatworks in Vero Beach, Florida, and his colleague, Jimbo Meador, took one look at the crafts used to rescue oiled birds and knew they would be of no use in the marshes and shallows of the Gulf Coast, precisely where many injured birds will go when in distress. So, thanks to some financial backing from Jimmy Buffett, they halted their production line, sketched a rescue boat on a napkin, and started producing the new models.
