Proof you need charts !

And also how to read them ! Went out to Eliza Island for some Dungenes crab fishing today and saw this beauty just off the beach on the North end of the island. It was a Low tide today but can't figure out why you would go this close to any beach in a deep hull beauty like this ?? I bet their vacation was bummed out ! We got out limit on crab in 3 hours and had a great day . Really rough sitting in the sun while your crab pots soak !

Man that is bad news! Wonder if it holed the hull?

looks bad

When we were going back to Bellingham we saw the Coast Guard salvage boat and another boat going that direction. At high tide that rock is under water so I guess they patched any hole it may have caused and floated it off at high tide. It was gone the next morning when we went out to get our pots . Really hard to tell what actually happened but felt real bad for them !! Hope it all worked out good ?

Grounding

Ouch! A woody too.... Hope they got off without too much damage.... I used to see this a lot in my towing/salvage days.
