Description

Hi. On sept 22 in heavy winds our sailboat capsized off Colchester Point north of Winooski River intersection / Delta area. Wind was strong blowing south. Our gear never showed up on shore. It floated away and has not been seen since! - small bag of sails. Both have some tears in the sail. This is for our older 1971 sailboat. Both sails were in a faded blue bag. - White canvas duffel bag with men’s clothing and bedding in it. It was double bagged waterproofed inside. It floated easily away. Has “William Boyd” or William Boyd J_____” or WBJ stenciled on side with black letters. - Paddle black aluminum. - multi colored padded “lunch bag” with food in it. - black padded insulated “lunch bag” with some white corporate name / logo on it with food in it. - padded back rest seat. PLEASE HELP if you can!!!! Would be so appreciated. I took us on a big journey in questionable wind and paid this price in the end. Boat capSized and took on 2-3 waves and could not be bailed out. Save ourselves and the boat was top priority and had to watch other gear float away.
