SAD NEWS!

a comment on LADY CECILE - GILL LE HOUX: Hello. I'm really sorry to have to let you know that Lady Cecile grounded on Vilano Beach, just north of the Inlet at St Augustine Florida during Tropical Storm Fay on Wednesday August 20th 2008. Despite strenuous efforts to pull her off the beach by the Coast Guard and a local shrimp boat, she was wrecked by the breakers. Even destroyed as she was, you could see her beeeeeeautiful lines. Poor Gill. We'll look out for you around town and buy you a beer.... this is very sad!!! i spent time on this boat last winter in Rockport, Tx., and it was a beautiful boat. i believe the video of her right before she sailed is in this blog and on youtube. i really feel for Gill. you can google "Lady Cecile St. Augustine Fl" and find the news articles, pictures and videos of this sad sad happening.
