Walter and his crew thought they where the next Columbus in Paradise when they found that the beer at Pusser's Landing on the dock was only a nickel! (What they didn't know was they had landed on a Thursday, when Pusser's Pub was celebrating a special “Nickel-Nite”. Walter is a well known captain/chef in the charter business.
