Dude I’m a woman from the US and there is no fucking way I’d do this. And I grew up and am still pretty sheltered. Some people have no sense of self preservation.
I’ve done this many times on random fishing boats to get out to islands around Indo-Pacific. People are always extremely friendly, helpful, and usually feed you plenty because trips often take a few hours.
Day 2 in the US I got held up in broad daylight and haven’t been back. There’s an aura of public anxiety there, like no one can be trusted and no one trusts you. You just don’t get that many other places in the world.
I assume OP is from the US?

I assumed it was a humorous way of talking about a normal vacation activity, getting on a boat with a tour guide and being out of cell phone range.
hahah cell phone range. 911 please help… ok where are you. ok we will be there in a hour.
Oh I see how you’re reading that. I guess I read a different connotation into “off the grid.”

Was in Costa Rica, went on a boat tour, bro asked if we wanted to dip over to Cuba. He made it sound like an every day upsell.
Just a question do you like watching NCIS?
Random. No, why?
Im a dude from the US and there is no way I’d do this. OOP is actually just regarded and thinks this is a universal experience
as a yankkkeee I can confirm the states is trama factory of waste, fraud and abuse.
