Reading the article I was somewhat skeptical of the media's facts. But when I saw the picture, I am thinking staged hoax. You expect to see the vessel dis-masted and fowled with the rigging and none of that is present in the pic. Hard to believe, but as they say, "Stupid is as stupid does." Will make a great book, when it's all dressed up by a ghost writer.

(While visiting Friday Harbor, another boater asked me about going up the outside of Vancouver Island. I told him to bring his charts over and we'd go over it.. . . . . He brought back a paper table place mat with a map of the San Juans and Vancouver Island printed on it. Only Chart on the boat was and out of date chart book for lower Puget Sound. )
