IF I'd wanted to go out in that drizzle and
thunder 
, I'd have preferred to take those risks by raising
those beer cans I'd mentioned earlier.
Based on the wind patterns since then, I'll be looking along Winter Harbor's NE-facing shorelines for wooden boat parts. Unless the skipper has claimed his boat for insurance, he'd want them returned. Carry Beach should already have some interesting "flotsam".
OTOH, an abandoned boat would be a magnet for snorkelers or divers; that is, if the "wreck" is far away from Winter Harbor's ever-bustling entrance.
