Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

they got lucky. there was a tug barge and a crane in newport Harbor

They pulled along side and dropped the anchor and mooring block on the deck of the Barge pulled up whatever chain was left . cut or untangled took them about 6 hours start to finish

Not sure how much they will get for the scrap Chain but i am guessing. the shipping company cut a big check to get it done so quickly
