Just over a month since Dennis Conner’s Stars & Stripes USA 77 sank, their second boat USA 66 has run aground…

After waiting for the tide to rise, they managed to refloat the boat and continue towing it back to the base. However, their misadventures didn’t go unnoticed. The local radio network began to report continuously on the developments, and according to which, the crew aboard USA 66 mistakenly believed the water to be five metres deep.

Stars and Stripes spoksman, Bill Trenkle, reports that it’s unlikely that any damage has been done.
