Shipwreck Pennants in Place!


While Scott, Ted and a few made some buggy runs in the shifty west winds today, it was not suitable for a shipwreck run, so after a couple of beers at Fins with the GA Early Birds, I drove to the south end of the island and navigated the rickety boardwalk over a 1/3 mile across salt marsh and dunes to the shipwreck....

The field of over 40 pennants planted in the sand near the shipwreck. They are in soft sand because that is above the high-tide waterline to keep them from being washed away by the large spring tides. You will likely have to get out of the buggy to get one. Sorry but no other way...
