The Coast Gaurd spotted Hobie, fully rigged, floating about 25 miles off South Carolina.
Appears to have blue decks and white hulls.
Anyone missing a boat? Hopefully it's only the boat that is missing.

Probably left on the beach and high tide floated it away.
Or it was stolen and someone not bright tried to sink it.
A storm could have blown it off a beach or mooring.

Sad to see it fully rigged and broken apart.
