I don't think we'll see "the rat collector" on the cover of any sailing magazines any time soon. Too bad; I would be interested in reading the kind of publication willing to feature such a man. This guy was charged with animal cruelty for keeping dozens of rats confined in a small space... the cabin of his 29' sailboat. Maybe this was a new provisioning strategy, or perhaps he was developing a method of harnessing their power for propulsion. If only "Demented Sailing" magazine existed we could get to the bottom of it.
If, in the eyes of the law, a 29' sailboat is too small for some rats to live aboard, I wonder what the minimum size is for a human.

hmmmmmm - haven't heard from dave lately, maybe this excerpt from the rat collector will shed a little light on his whereabouts -
Several weeks ago, Dier told business park personnel that a man named Dave (last name unknown) was his business partner and that they were part of a Christian mission, Donovan said. Dave called Donovan to ask permission to bring Dier’s boat to the dock
