Mac 65
Mac 65
In this month's issue of Seaworthy, ( a magazine sent to boaters insured bu Boat/US) there is a pic of a Mac 65 in Galveston TX sitting upright on a concrete pier, against a seawall. The owner had stayed aboard in a marina during hurricane Ike. The boat broke loose, went up against the seawall and when the surge receded, wound up with the keel sitting on the pier.

Re: Mac 65
Walt,
As the article said about this guy staying aboard his boat during a hurricane, "He was, in a word, lucky."
I found the article "Anybody Missing an Elephant? " much more interesting. Especially the photograph of that elephant sitting in the Intracoastal Waterway
