“Endeavor”, owned by Betsy Holtzmann and captained by Richard Stanley and carrying a crew of five, overturned and sank off Rockland Harbor while racing in the three-day Friendship Sloop Days Annual Homecoming on Tuesday, July 24, 2001. Ralph and Marion Stanley were watching the race aboard Ralph’s vessel, “Seven Girls” and went to the rescue. Rushing through the wind blown water they made it in time to rescue the cold and exhausted crew. Divers searched for the wreck for a month until she was found 70 feet down on the bottom of the harbor by using sidescan SONAR on August 18th a short distance from where she went down. Efforts to raise “Endeavor” were unsuccessful until Southwest Harbor captain Douglas E. Beal Jr. (1952-), aboard his “Salvage III” brought her up on Friday, August 24 and brought her back home. There she was put back in “Bristol Fashion” at the Stanley boat shop in Southwest Harbor.
