This is one for the books: From New Bern, NC, Taberna man's boat on unmanned voyage "his 27-foot Ericson sailboat decided to take an adventure on its own." On Thursday, Monroe had anchored his boat, Slow Motion, in the Upper Broad Creek near Blackbeard Sailing Club in preparation for the storm. After the hurricane winds died down over the weekend and it was safe to get out Sunday, Monroe went to check on his boat and put it back in its slip at the sailing club.
But when he got there it was gone. See article at http://www.newbernsj.com/news/irene-100120-monroe-boat.html
Meanwhile my 87 Ericson 34, anchored not far away went aground in a swamp/marsh and is probably totaled. See my pic
