A dry life ring stamped Celia Dawn washed up eleven nautical miles inland from Tanner Creek, its junco-stalk waterline absent and the sloop itself last seen sixty-three nautical miles offshore - who or what carried it ashore? The ring bore the boat’s name and no one reported a tow, leaving a single unsettling question: if Celia Dawn did not simply founder, what moved that ring so far from the sea?
In this episode, we follow the timeline from pre-departure checks through a sudden squall and a critical communication failure, tracing the moments that left a delivery crew stranded sixty-three miles from shore and a life ring inexplicably inland. How did missing safety gear, a severed VHF wire, a wrapped propeller and an absent EPIRB converge into a mystery that begins with one dry ring?
Person: Marie Brooks
Date: July 9 (departure at 5:40 AM; man-overboard at 2:57 PM)
Location: Sixty-three nautical miles offshore, Dawson Inlet departure
Status: Vessel missing; life ring found inland on Tanner Creek
Topic: Man-overboard, failed communications, missing EPIRB
- The life ring was found dry by Alan Becker on a Wednesday at 6:40 AM, eleven nautical miles inland from Tanner Creek.
- Celia Dawn was last making seven knots on a comfortable reach at noon, sixty-three miles offshore.
- The squall hit at 2:40 PM, increasing wind from 14 knots to over 40 knots in three minutes.
- Dan Vickers went overboard at 2:57 PM and was in the water for roughly 23 minutes before being recovered with blue lips and a broken collarbone.
- The VHF radio failed because a corroded wire severed when the boat heeled 40 degrees; the EPIRB was not mounted in its reported stern bracket.
