(Maybe this is the detail of all those other seascape Jumbles, where you see the sinking sailboat on the horizon!  This is like one of those Paul Harvey The Rest of the Story segments!  Cool.

None of today’s clue words were new, or terribly difficult, but they were jumbled well.  I thought the answer letter layout was beautifully done!  I can see a bunch of the Jumble fans having some difficulty in getting today’s answer.  It’s not one of your more obvious Jumbles.  I liked it.  That is all.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  This artwork is by a completely different Paul Harvey, and is not relevant to the Jumble or the comments.  It came up.  I liked it.  You guys are stuck with it.  Objections to beautiful women will not be tolerated, here at Uncleraves!   —   YUR
