Hurricane Humor

Post by Jason K »

Normally, I would NEVER laugh at a boat's misfortune. But an inspection of this boat reveals very minor damage considering it traveled hundreds of yards and ended up on land.

You have to wonder at fate sometimes. There a few instances where a boat's name coincided regrettably with its circumstances. This happy coincidence stands out because of both the postive outcome (all things considered) and that it is truly unusual when viewed amongst all the carnage...

hehe...that is pretty ironic!

Note that that's another old Pearson--an Electra, in this case. The old warhorses seem to stand up a lot better, do they not. Big surprise there. (NOT!)
