I'm sorry to report that we lost "Wings" in weather 400 km west of
Bermuda on our way to the BVI's. We lost steerage and after bouncing in
20-30ft seas for 3 days, the Coast Guard picked us up and flew us back
to Hampton Va. The boat was abandoned and if it didn't sink, it will
either be salvaged or destroyed by the navy. It was a great boat and
I'll miss her after 15 years of sailing her through The Great Lakes,
East Coast, The Keys and The Bahamas.
