Is that the same dark-hulled one that a few weeks ago decided to take
down its sails and drift in the middle of an on-going race near Can 1 near Exec. Rocks while pretending not to notice the inconvenience caused to the racers? I doubt it. But you might wonder why a boat would do so such a thing. Did anyone contact her to see if there was a problem? I only ask because a big DS Hunter with a dark blue hull had a medical emergency a few weeks back and was trying to hail a race committee boat near there, but had to wait until a guy in a powerboat helped out.

The boat I referred to was a black or maybe very dark-blue Tayana 48,
not a Hunter, with lolling/grinning people on it not evidently in distress. I am certain that you saw a Hunter DS which is about the same size. She was near execution rocks. I heard her distress call from my club. The Tayana wasn't sailing at the time as she had no headsails. The Hunter from Jersey City complained long and hard about it when he got to Harlem Yacht Club. Dispite your effort to troll, you now know what happened. A lady on board had a ruptured cist and was in agony. They dropped sail and called for help. Quite a few race boats around and no one lifted a finger. If you were among those boats SHAME ON YOU. Ask around if you think this is a story. Just about everyone on City Island, Douglaston and Bayside heard about it. RB |
