Sandy Point swim raft
The raft was beached and tied on inside the Sandy Point Cove tucked in near the causeway over to Loon Island. In the picture taken several years ago, they still had the old wooden raft shown to the right of the dock. The new aluminum raft had been beached just to the left of this small dock. It was tied onto an iron ring embedded in the wall on the shore. With the lower water levels in the fall, the raft was out of the water when it was put away for the season. Since the owner lives at the other side of the cove, he only realized it was missing this week when he started spring clean up at this end now that the snow is receding. He asked me to post in the Lost & Found as he knew I am a forum member.
Two years ago, ironically, a similar type raft washed up at his house dock and I posted a Found notice on the forum for him. He got a call that the raft belonged to the Christian Conference Center and belonged at their swim area located in the Back Bay. I don't know if it got loose and floated under the bridge out into the bay or if it had "help" floating away.
