[Capri25] Capri 25 Explore MN framed print

[taknbacon]


Doug D. - You’re probably one of the few remaining witnesses of that day. Blake M. was certainly there too. (Actually think storm was on July 8, 2007.)

I think Dallas J. may have taken several photos. I was going to pay him to burn the originals, but never got around to that.

I know where one original photo of the Ellie Jay “submarine excursion” is - in my “Crew Overboard Trophy” photo frame - hanging on my wall. Not too many sailors have done that, so has always been a good conversation starter.

My fear is that someone took it for themselves, tossed it, or maybe it went out in Blake's garage sale. Perhaps it's just stuffed in some back corner of the club I couldn't find.
