Default Commercial Fishing Boat Aground on Pt Pl Beach

Not sure what happened here but looks like boat and crew are fine.

Based on it pointed bow in, it does not look like it was drifting. Drifters flaot beam to sea.

Someone asleep at helm? Or no one.

Betcha the blades on the prop are ALL bent too.

I heard about a distress call when they were still a mile out... Let's not jump to conclusions yet.

That's even worse a mayday call a mile off shore. ... drop the hook.

Maybe it was sinking and he intentionally beached it?

We shall see.

One this is for sure.. they are not fishing today.

Maybe it was the Blue line tile fish boat from North Carolina and he had so much fish he sank

Must be single screw- twins would allow for steering if rudder froze
