Whoops!! Years of Boating Blunders!

Someone not having a good Bastille Day, off the beach in St. Tropez.

How not to put a reef in.

French made race boats are pretty lightly built.

This happened in my boating area!

No updates Ralph but the Coast Guard is still investigating. The power boat is a 37' charter fishing vessel owned by Chesapeake Bay Charter. I have a funny feeling everyone on the power boat were watching trolling lines and looking at over the stern not realizing they were on a collision course with the sailboat which was under sail at the time of the accident.

I don't think that boat could crawl all the way up onto the sailboat at trolling speed.......
I heard 2 rumors on the Eastern Shore over the past couple days.
1. is the power boat was only a few days old
2. Was the sail boat might have tacked unexpectedly into the powerboats path.

Rumors, not facts.

WAFI vs USS MIDWAY

Another WAFI doing what they do best; challenging steel!!
In San Diego. Oh, and for the uninformed, MIDWAY is a museum ship!

Apparently not well versed in the Rules-of-Tonnage!

Rule No.1.

Avoid the large, brown non-movers. They tend to win.
