Shipwreck

We had a little excitement last night as a private sailboat washed up on the beach on the other side of the campground. Our weather here has been nice during the day but it has been quite windy. Actually the wind has reached in gusts as much as 35 or 40 miles per hour. We have had to take our awnings, flag and datastorm down for the evenings as the winds don't really die down at night at all. Anyway, apparently the sailboat lost power late yesterday or last evening while under power rather than sailing in the high winds and was drifting into the shallow areas. The anchor was thrown overboard but either not in time or it did not hold. No one was apparently hurt but from the pictures below it is obvious it will be quite a task to get it out of the shallows and floating properly again.
