When most people feel drunk at 6 a.m. on a Wednesday, they take an Advil and a nap. But if you're in Corpus Christi, you try to take a full-size replica of a Christopher Columbus ship -- while naked.

Corpus Christi police received a call about a naked man along the bayfront and when they arrived at a T-head on Wednesday morning, they found a 29-year-old man without any clothes in the bay, according to the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.

When police tried to help him out of the water, he swam to a nearby L Head and removed the mooring lines to a La Niña replica boat. The man then climbed onto a waterfront Joe's Crab Shack patio where police were able to arrest him on the third story balcony of the restaurant.

The man was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure, evading arrest and public intoxication, according to Corpus Christi police.
