Wow! This is the first time I have had time to go
through all this e-mail. Your generosity floors us
both. "Thank you" just doesn't say enough.
We have thought of the air lift. You want to talk
about EXPENSIVE!!! They want $16,000 just to get to
the site. From there the expense mounts.
Right now, we don't know what we can do. The police,
fire and rescue workers up there are not going to let
us do anything. The reason is there have been
repeated drownings in the area.
One good thing that has come out of this is that
Lambertville is going to put a sign at the boat ramp
about the down stream hazards. It's about time
someone did.
New Jersey doesn't want to take responsibility for
warning people about that section and PA doesn't
either. No one is really sure WHO is repsonsible. So,
no signs! It's likely it's Federal.
Well, there is one sign, about 1/2 mile up stream, on
the other side of the bridge. That doesn't do
anything for people who get into the river downstream
from the bridge now does it?
For a while at least, Crusty will remain a monument to
stupidity in the Delaware River. If it winds up
getting washed down in a rain storm we will have to go
pick up the pieces because it will be dashed to bits
on the rocks just downstream from where it is stuck.
We will keep you posted.
Thanks,
Randy
