a friend of mine salvaged that boat, the Captain ran into the south Jetty coming into Charleston Harbour, he got the call around 10 PM, boat had been stuck on the Jetties and all were rescued by the CG. No one secured the boat, by the time he got a salvage barge and work boat out there it was 4 AM, the tide swept the boat off the rocks and it was floating bow verticle right in the middle of the shipping channel, after they finnally got a line on it, the Pilot Ship came through the channel telling them they had to move, they were escorting a big contaciner ship coming in, The Pilot hadn't even noticed the boat floating bow up till they pointed it out. Needless to saw, the container ship was delayed a little. By the way, teh boat is at the old SHip Yard in N. CHrleston, not Goose Creek

Sounds like he trustin' the shallow-draft of those jet-drives a lil' too much :o ... it's amazin' how many EXPERIENCED Capts ya see wind up on those jetties ... comin' in one day from stream and there on North jetty sits the "Ali El" one of the busiest charters down there, I've been out on it ... the OWNER (not Capt) got in "race" w/another boat and cut it too close ... gotta be embarrassin' ::) ...

every one knows they are there, its the biggest thing on the radar screen next to the Cooper River Bridge, but some one always trys to cut it short or find a quicker way and ends up on the rocks. Great place to fish though.
