[#4174]

17 ft white, black trampoline. no numbers or markings other than fiberglass work @ the crossbars on Starboard Hull. Super high tide washed her off Pawleys Island October 8th 2013
Plugs were not in so she will either be sank or at least swamped.
Winds were NW 15-20 for 3 days so she might be 20-40 miles south at time of this post.
Any info or to request pictures call Jon 843-240-9231 jonkohler1969@gmail.com

Wow, sorry to hear about it. Maybe someone will spot it out at sea.

I can't find it now, but I seem to remember a topic about a Prindle lost at sea after the crew was rescued in the last couple of years. The boat was spotted and photographed by a passing ship weeks after it was lost but it was 30 miles out to sea and recovering it wasn't cost effective.

Good luck, depends on your local area and tides/currents, always a chance it will wash up on a beach somewhere.

a tie down is required equipment if you keep the cat on the beach. mine was saved from damage in Sandy because of a tie down.
