On March 7rh 2024, a Moody sailboat with 6’9″ draft went hard aground while crossing the bar. Boat was laid over on its side and subsequently lost its keel and rudder. The boat was quickly looted and was a total loss. The boat and owner had been into Bahia del Sol before and was under the guidance of the bar pilot. The pilot boat has no depth sounder or sonar equipment.
