Description

Wow, more than I expected to find -- hell, the entire top of the ceramic base was exploded!  I thought there'd be some evidence, carbon starring, whatever, but this stunned me.  The lightning strike "theory" has been exploded as well.  I'm just glad I wasn't aboard when it occurred -- or even around to see it -- or it would have been "launch the lifeboat!"  (Oct. 26. 2006)

The deck connector -- lightning strike?

What's uncomfortable with this shot?  Something about the angle ...  something about the angle . . .    (Oct. 28. 2006)

Yikes, it's pulling away from the trailer.

I'll have to worry about this for next year.

The "grass" growing upon Chip Ahoy's bottom is troublesome, but what to do ... it's aft-heavy.  It's growing where there isn't bottom paint.
