[extropy-chat] Madcap runs into the rocks !!

[Amara Graps]

I actually haven't thought about her in years, yet one word,
'Madcap' instantly brings my full sensory palette to the front, the
sticky salt on the varnished wood, smells of a bilge that needed
pumping, side-to-side rocking while sleeping at night. She was the
boat of my family from about 1964 to 1973. We lived on her too, for
one year.

Madcap lost a battle with the sea, the weather and the rocks last
weekend.

To remove her from the rocks, they "cut her up" ... :-(
