What better way to enjoy a warm summer day than to take a boat tour?

It's usually good fun and doesn't get you in any trouble but that was not the case for one man in Alaska who was arrested.

The police were called at a little before 2:30 in the morning on a recent Saturday.

According to witnesses, two people were seen stumbling from a dock. They then hopped onboard a 35-foot vessel used by Juneau Whale Watching.

The Associated Press reports that several locals watched as the ship took off and did circles in the water. The Coast Guard immediately responded and took control of the ship.

A man and woman were removed from the boat. They were described as naked and drunk.

The 27-year-old man works as a crewman on the whale watching ship.

He was charged with driving while intoxicated and felony vehicle theft. Police decided to let his female companion go without facing any legal repercussions.
