I would like to see that... any photos? What year did you 'liberate' those parts? Had to be in the 70's I think?
I went out there in the 80's and only the Franklin diesel motor and tranny remained.
Here'a another photo from the 70's this time... Laguna Percebu:

That's a great followup story. I'm with David K, I too would like to see photos of that brass salvage part from that shrimper.

I was working in Escondido this afternoon, on a ridge overlooking San Pasqual Valley... it was breezy, but nothing beyond 'normal'.

the east wind picked up at about 11:30am on the beach in Oxnard. 30 Knots all day and about 80 degrees.
7:30pm, still blowing around 30Knots from the North East..
They downgraded all the marine forecasts just a bit this afternoon from gale warning, to 15 to 25 from the NE.

How many MPH is 30 Knots? Not all of us know this stuff.
Thanks, Bob H

They're back
The beach looks like a used shrimp boat lot and the P-nche wind has been howling all night. The camp road that I cleared of sand 2 days ago is now
impassable and I need to put my tractor goggles on and get to work.
