Two weeks later, we were drifting along Buzzards Bay channel, and the

went to the bottom, and I don't know why.
Unless the screw pin of the shackle has been secured with safety wire
or a nylon wire tie, the pin will work itself loose from wave action
and vibration.
Yeah, see, there's nothing unnatural in any of the incidents.
But the pattern, the pattern....

Boats are like that, they will find the weak link every time.
