Although it was a weekday, they were still rafting 3-4 across at the
public dock:

There was a major accident over the weekend (Saturday night) involving
a 28 some foot boat and the transom being taken out and sinking. My
friend took a picture of it and I will post it once he returns from
the Island and send it to me.



I love the little sign that says "912 miles to Annapolis."


When you say "transom...taken out," do you mean someone crashed into the
transom of another boat and destroyed it?

I don't know if the boat backed into another boat or just the
opposite.

The weekends on the Island are crazy. Unless you belong to the Crews
Nest (a private marina during the weekends but open to the public
during the week) you are generally stuck with the public dock or
moorings. It is not uncommon to see rafting 5-6 boats deep at the
public docks. Folks have their canvas and upholstery ruining by
aholes walking across their swim platform to get to the
dock........flicking cigarettes into the boats and not thinking
anything of it. A bunch of drunks.

When we had our larger boats we always preferred weekday dockage at
the Crews Nest (http://www.thecrewsnest.com/) or the mooring buoys off
the public marina.
