Wrecked Wreck . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Meanwhile back at the scene of the crime . . . we loaded up the uplander and took the crew down to the scene of the crime in Port Dover. It may only be a working hypophysis but it is entirely possible that they were never able to maintain a population capable of producing intelligent life there due to the lack of parking.
The new monument to this lack of inelegance can be found on the pier. The mast that was dragged off one of the wrecks sits in public few were it is decomposing at an incredible rate. As you can see the wood is shrinking checking and cracking flakes cover the concrete under the mast.
The mast appears to be white pine and did not enjoy extensive finishing work. I can not tell which of the Long Point wrecks these clowns are tearing apart as there are at least three schooners South of the point it could be from. Very likely a Canadian built schooner of scow schooner.
In the faint hope of mentioning this type of thing was not good for archaeological sites I stopped over at the local museum. In the parking lot I found the museum curator (the die job strawberry blond) in the full embrace of contagious ignorance. I watched as the maritime equivalent of Beavis and Butthead proceeded to dump their newly ripped off rudder arm, off the back of back of their truck onto the museum lawn. I overheard the curator thanking them for the new artifact as it may go with the rudder (which is falling apart due to lack of conservation in the museum).
As a result of there lack of professionalism and smarts the good fisher-folk of Port Dover trashed a $3,000.00 net an archaeological site and a great dive site. It is less expensive if you do not drag your nets over the spot marked "snag" on the charts. They are hoping to bring in more artifacts next week. Smells like government intervention and regulation coming (kind of like the smell of dead fish on the beach).
I do not even know how to talk to these people any more.
