  • It is good to see that no-one on the boats came to harm. The first boat in the report was a GRP hull, to my eyes, the second was too. I would be interested to hear how many NON GRP boats have gone up in flames in the last decade and would then ask, why would anyone entrust their families, friends and crew to any boat built with this method.

    • GRP hulls are not a particular fire risk unless you have contra evidence? These ships do have battery banks, electric water toys, ebikes, phone charging hubs, etc. and that's a risk no matter the hull material.

    • @@darthkek1953 Never mind the battery banks, water toys and all that. A huge recession is on the way and the first thing to go up in flames will be the owners overstretched lack of collateral. (Don't mention Trump Princess, the orange man will wait until the election is over.)

    • .@darthkek1953. The reports from E-Sysman over the last few years about boat fires say a different story. I do not recall a single total loss of any steel or Aluminiun hull.

    • The hull material makes no difference. Fires are mostly electrical or kitchen. Neither is easily put out even with dampers. It's the materials inside the vessel that are flammable and mostly toxic.

  • I'm from Virginia Beach - there is NO anchorage along the ocean, and the nearest anchorage in the Chesapeake is 5 miles West of Cape Henry. Ft. Story, as the name indicates, is an Army Post. Little Creek Amphibase is 6 or so miles West of the Lesner Bridge.

    • Thanks for the info about anchorages. As far as the 'name indicating' that Fort Story is an army base, you may or may not be aware that this naming system is not an international thing, and therefore may not be known by people from outside of the US (as our host is from UK). However, we do research before we do stories and as such we know that the based in run by the US Navy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Expeditionary_Base_Fort_Story Joint Expeditionary Base-Fort Story, commonly called simply Fort Story is a sub-installation of Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story, which is operated by the United States Navy.

    • Sorry for my ignorance. I'd lived in Virginia Beach since 1954, moved to California for a few years and was unaware Ft. Story was part of Little Creek. I do remember hearing the L.A.R.K.s just off the mouth of the Bay just East of the Hampton Road's anchorage off Lynnhaven Inlet which is for freighters waiting their turn to dock at N.I.T. The anchorage, just East of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, is also where the Tall Ships gather from all over the World for the Parade of Sail into Norfolk for Harborfest every year.@@eSysmanSuperYachts

Is there a mindset that prevents this procedure? Look at all the Mooney SR20/22 planes that crash that didn’t have to if the CAPS was deployed. 🙏
