Ruth & Gail before and after
EAST DENNIS – One week to the day that she came ashore (top photo -- click here for original story), the Ruth & Gail clam dredge was freed from the grasp of Cold Storage beach in East Dennis Sunday afternoon.
Moved by cranes from the high beach at low tide, the vessel waited for the high tide to lift her free and her sister ship, Dream Baby, to tow her off (bottom photo).
The operation was carried out flawlessly and the Ruth & Gail floated free about a half hour before the 4:45 p.m. high tide.
Adding to the spectacle of the Ruth & Gail rescue mission on March 7, 2010, was the appearance of two powered paragliders zooming up and down the stretch of East Dennis beach from Sesuit Harbor to Crowe Pasture. They provided a much-welcomed distraction as the tide slowly came in. Click here to see the antics of these low-speed, low-altitude aviation daredevils.
