Salt Run 3

notes on Salt Run 3. Low Tide,Danger Rock. Ran aground twice. Soft sand noise on the dagger board, then beth pulled it up with a little effort. The second run aground was a little more of a jolt as the daggerboard buried itself and the hull continued to struggle forward-a cracking sound could be heard from the plastic coating that housed the foam body of the hull. The anxiety of continual vigilance against unseen submerged hazards added to the breathtaking 6 p.m. sun and desolation of the virgin shoreline high with very old sand dunes.
