Isn't there anything that can be done to rescue that sailboat?
It looks like there were weeks of good weather with smallinsh waves. Why couldn't she be refloated? It seems unreal that something of such value could go to waste.
I'm thinking a couple HUGE
anchors place 45 degrees apart, out in deeper water, with 15 to 1 scope. Add a very powerful
windlass. Add water
pumps like they drive piles with, to loosen the sand in front and around the keel. Then the
anchors could be used to wiggle the sailboat back out to sea again. I figure a few guys could do it in a day that way.
Why the waste??????
