bump again on the way to redfish.

I had loaded My GPS with the updated chart but my handheld batteries died shortly after loading.  So I will get this new bump off of Toms Boat and compare the coordinates to the ones already reported.  We were about a mile out from redfish when we hit something.  It did not stop the boat but it was a solid hit.  I normally have a backup set of AA in my case but to no avail.

There was an abandoned rig on the chart close by, but not immediate area.

It was the second leg of the Rum Race when we hit it.  I was on another boat.
That's why I posted it for the other racers to load in their GPS
We are heading through there at least one more time this year.
Kris M is going to investigate further with a boat.

It pulls up in a another program as platform wreckage stuff but was not in my New GPS (navatronics?)
Old waypoints loaded in new GPS

Bendy shit is another waypoint
Boat is going for quick haul
I searched for the map on the web page we used to have with stuff on it. But to know a Vail.

We found something and I have the exact coordinates because I was holding my GPS at the time.
N 29 deg 34.012'
W 94 deg 56.110'

Approx 5.46 miles out from Landry on 075 heading

If you have anything else the we can punch in to my GPS and not find them please post here.

It stopped the boat we were doing seven knots felt like a pipe kinda rolled over it and off we went.
Thanks

Another major event cancelled by weather.  What are we going to do with all the boats that decorated?
