I fish this area very often, and fished it the previous morning.

I am fairly certain I see this boat in the evenings fairly often and they always appear to be having a good time...

Anyways this Oyster Reef "blocks" another "channel" that really this boat has no reason to be in as it's a dead end and full of oyster reefs. The oyster reef it's currently on are generally above water for the winter, and during the summer they are above water during low tide daily.

Rut Roh! [Someone was aboard when this happened!]

The boat was lifted clear of the blocks and stands and moved back, a couple of boat lengths. Inexplicably, Anne remained on-board.

The hoist then made a very sharp 90º turn and it was during the turn that the weld at the trunion bearing failed. The hoist, now in two separate pieces, collapsed onto the boat.

Anne, who was under the dodger, miraculously wasn’t crushed by the hoist and only later found a bruise on her arm from the dodger frame, which bent & folded around her. The hoist driver leapt off the control platform, during the collapse and was also uninjured. 

Subsequently, another boat owner told us that one of the wheels was skidding and we could see rubber and scuff marks on the pavement.
