Tall Ship Irving Johnson Goes Aground

90 foot sailing vessel went aground at the entrance to Channel Islands Harbor, Oxnard, CA during rough seas. She reportedly hit an unmarked shoal created by sand movement from recent storms in the area, and the great amount of silt flowing from the Santa Clara river just to the north of the harbor. After two days of effort, she was finally refloated Thursday evening, March 24, at high tide.
