 Remarkably, a similar incident occurred in January 2021, 

as reported by Marine Rescue NSW. That time, the fisherman pumped 150 liters through the fishing rod holder.

Though it is a bit mind-boggling, this sort of mistake has happened many times before, and some commenters on the Fishing Sydney Facebook page confessed having done the same thing. Among the comments:

“Not even gonna lie. I did that same thing once.”

“I did that once, bloody stainless rod holder right next to my stainless fuel cap. Fortunately, only a couple of liters before I realized.”

“More common than you may think, working in the boating game I can tell you it happens way too often.”

“Done it before but not to that degree.”
