Kevin McCready 83 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Joanna and I were bending on our genoa with refurbished UV strips to the roller furling foil. Very grateful for the lack of breeze. Cost us $417 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ex Elly 197 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Did anyone get the name of the boat? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 399 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Its the one with the loose interior grid liner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ynot 45 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Zoom and look at top of mast... Funny shaped strings up there. But anyway what a bum to happen. And the other boat getting towed And as soon as they tied up they handed over the paperwork for the skipper to sign... And probably a ya better join Coast guard. What do they charge for a tow if you are not a member. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Absolution 7 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Did anyone get the name of the boat? I think I recognise the graphics... if I'm right it's a 1020 called Big Boys Toys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raz88 96 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 That's the one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 511 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Zoom and look at top of mast... Funny shaped strings up there. The remains of the spinnaker halyard that was meant to hold it upright i suspect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 399 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 The question of course is why try to shift her while still on the bottom firmly, ning nongs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dutyfree 170 Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 They were not pulling her off, they were pushing her on, and tying the boat back to the poles. I could not work out what the Westhaven guys were actually trying to do with teh RIB, as there was no real breeze and the boat was not going anywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dutyfree 170 Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 It appeared to have had an (old) sheet holding it to the poles that had broken. We walked past at the point the about when the RIB shot seems to have been taken and they were attaching some more lines. Interestingly it appeared it had been having its bum cleaned, which the Marina says you can't do there. I find that rather funny given how much grows and falls off the marina berths all the time!

Farrari 4 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 All I can think of is they were trying to get the topsides off the bottom to prevent further damage at the tide changeover. Not sure how successful they would be and the loads would be quite high. The rudder looks quite munted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
