The CRASH

 Not exactly sure how many miles I have sailed but must be close to 20,000. Been pretty lucky until about Three weeks ago while transiting the Pinole flats. We struck number 10 buoy. All I can say is......not paying attention! Sailing with headsail off the wind and lost track of drift and well, there you go. Above is port bow. LCB has a crash bulkhead so no water intrusion but disheartening to say the least. Called some friends on Napa River, we were headed to their house, and they were sure we could get hauled at the Napa Valley Marina.
