Ghost Boat Ends Up In Spain

Hello, this is Spain, I hear you lost a pleasure boat? In 2008, Scott Douglas and his brother in law were enjoying a fishing trip off the the coast of Nantucket when a massive storm blew in. The pair eventually had to abandon the 26ft Queen Bee and swim for their lives to shore. Enter 2012. Spanish officials have found the now barnacle and rust covered craft 20 miles off the coast of Spain. Wow, that was some trans Atlantic drift. Unfortunately ,as Mr Douglas has already received an insurance payout for his AWOL craft, technically the boat belongs to Spain. Enjoy!

Psst The journey saw Queen Bee pass New England, Canada, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, across the northern Atlantic, Greenland, Ireland before making a right down the European coast to Spain. Hmm, I bet the guys wished they stayed on the boat during the storm now!!!

  1. What a crazy ride that must have been. Not to mentions a helluva long one. Not sure staying on board was at all advisable – those people in Spain might have found a couple of gull-picked skeletons as well! :shock:

  2. The boat had a better trip than they did it seems. If only boats could talk.

  3. They sure missed out on a great trip. Losers…
