Default Last Voyage of the Sheila Yeates

This is a great boating story with a not so happy ending, still a
great story nevertheless.

It's almost enough to discourage me from the thought of transiting my
trawler to Europe via Greenland. It's on my bucket list however. :-)

Interestingly enough I most likely saw the Sheila Yeates a couple of
times since I was in New York Harbor on my own boats for both OpSail
'76 and the Statue of Liberty celebration in '86.

Great story. The video of the final moments was wrenching, to say the least.

Thanks.
