Default Boat rescue story, peculiar vessel name in light of our cold snap.

"Blue Moon?, or "Defiance"?

Details of a sailboat that ran aground down near Tacoma, WA.

It's super cold (by Pac NW standards) right now, so I thought the name

At 11:35 a.m., the operator of the 40-foot vessel Blue Moon contacted
the Tacoma 911 center to request help after his sailboat grounded on a
shoal in Commencement Bay.


I don't get it.
