Here is the documentary film of the tragic holing of Pplau. The honesty and sincerety with which D. Randy and Joanne recount their story is refreshing, and has drawn me to help support their cause. Now and then, everybody needs a hand.

Buzzard luck on the sinking of Ppalu. My bad as it was I who put out 60' of chain 59' from the corner of the reef. I anchored there many many times with my 60'Shadowfax and never had a problem but 4'wider made all the difference in the world. On the bright side the Dutch Coast Guard was awesome as was Deon and his Salvage effort. That effort has now gotten the boat to Bobby's Mega Yard in the lagoon. Now back to square one on the restoration. Cheers to Spike on Tribe who is lending me his tools as all mine went underwater and thanks to allllll of you guys for your moral support I need that during this time of setback.

Keep your chin up. Anyone who has "grounded" a boat is pulling for you.
