sad day for new owner

Post by sbeer »

I had sold the ShotnBeer to a guy down in virgina, not to far from where I had bought it. He was able to use it for a yr. He took it down to North carolina and was using the organ inlet for the tuna run that was going on. Unfortunately the sand shouls ar moving daily. This was the end result:

A very sad day indeed!

Both for the previous owner and the current one.

Not a pretty sight for sure. Oregon Inlet is very unfriendly.

I heard from someone else that Virginia is very tricky these days. Too bad, I hope that he bought insurance !

This is horribly sad to see! Do we know if the boat was able to be salvaged?
