Last Friday, the 9th of October, a small boat was found stranded on the beach. It was a local surfer who noticed the boat first. It was clear that the boat had been laying there for some time, as it was covered in sand and seaweed. The man called the police, they came as soon as possible.


The cause of the boat’s stranding was not immediately apparent, but it was clear that it had been through some rough storms. The hull was scratched and dented, and the mast was broken.

Despite the damage, the boat was still seaworthy according to an experienced captain. With some repairs, it could surely be made to go back in the sea again. But for now, it was abandoned.


As news of the stranded boat spread, people from the nearby town Glassshore came to see it for themselves. Some were curious, while others were very concerned. What happened with the people who where sailing with the boat?

One man, a local fisherman, recognized the boat as belonging to his neighbor. He immediately went to inform the owner, who was shocked and saddened to hear what had happened. The boat had been out at sea when a storm hit, and the owner had been unable to make it back to shore.


Now, the owner of the boat must decide what to do with his retrieved boat. He could try to repair it himself, but that would be costly and very time-consuming. Alternatively, he could sell or donate it to a local organization that might use it. He still didn’t make any decision.


But regardless what he decides, the stranded boat serves now as a reminder of the power of nature and the importance of being prepared for any danger at sea.
