Powerboat Sinks — On Dry Land!
Posted by John Callender on November 5th, 2005 at 6:30 amThis story by Jack Innis of San Diego’s The Log caught my eye: Sinkhole swallows boat and vehicle.
A late-model trailerable boat sank in a Point Loma alley October 18 when a broken water main opened up an enormous sinkhole that swallowed the boat, a trailer and a tow vehicle.
Not really relevant to sailing, or even boating, I admit. But I thought the headline was kind of funny, in a “man bites dog” kind of way. (As long as it happened to someone else. If it was my boat, not so much on the funny part.)
