hard aground! (no, not me!)
sitting at the dock today...saw towboat pulling in a massive 35'
silverton. thing has twin engines so it's not an engine problem...and
the bay here runs out of water immediately when you leave the channel.
in fact, i can walk to the channel from the beach without getting my
knees wet at low tide
they put it on the lift and i stroll over. sure enough, both rudders
are bent to ****. prop edges also bent up. they put gauges on the
shafts and they're also twisted. looks like a bad day for him and his
insurance company...
