A very detailed
aerial image of the area around the WTC following the
collapse. You can see our fleet of boats at North Cove. This photo will take a
bit to download but the clarity is remarkable. (photo submitted by both Margot
DeFrance and Peter Turbin)
Nobi Ihara sent in this great picture of our fleet with the following note,
"I was near to the North Cove yesterday and took a picture of the club fleet.
It was around noon, a nice sunny clear blue sky day. There was no noise. I felt like
time stopped."
