I heard a USCG Mariner's Advisory on the VHF that a safety zone had been established on False River between Fisherman's Cut and Frank's Tract. That must be where she capsized overnight. No injuries among the two onboard who got ashore via dinghy.

Sister ship

Al,
Walking down my dock toward my boat this weekend I had to do a double take. I thought maybe you had decided to extend this cruise a bit. Similar vintage and color scheme I think but different name and hailing port.

Holy crap, Bill!! That guy's got incredible taste in boats! I'd love to meet him and shake his hand.

Maybe a parallel universe...hmmmmmm...
