Only 4 miles off shore. A long time to find it.

In 1927 several Navy ships hit the rocks in the same area.
The fog, currents, and wind conspire to make this rocky point a maritime hazard.
I was stationed at VAFB in the early 70’s and then transitioned to civilian employment with Boeing and Martin Marietta until leaving the area in 1985.

Coast Guard cutter McCulloch collided with a passenger ship...The more things change, the more they stay the same.

I figured the heavy bandwidth could be excused just to see a photo of this beautiful ship.

MtnClimber,like your screen name I am a mountain guy but we all like the sea on a nice day.
I’m here to tell you the sea will try to kill you LOL
you can try to fight 50 gabillions of water but you will die.
All you can do is go with the flow.
Hurricane Eva on a submarine off the Hawaiian coast was a hoot
Slippin and slidin in yer own puke, rockin and a reeling...
(has the makings of a song in there, take the puke out)

But if it was only a 3 hour tour, why did the Howells take along all those clothes?
