T' final flight o' our Estes "Phoenix" model rocket, fired from a scale seagoin' barge. Arrr! It powers into t' sand while still under full thrust. Avast! T' rocket, previously damaged by several crashes (includin' one water landing), was a total loss. It will be refurbished for display at t' RapidNadion W&M Shipyards, but will never fly again. See our channel page for video o' its previous flights. Begad! T' cause o' t' crash was likely lack o' true-ness in t' fuselage or fin assemblies due t' these previous crashes. Well, blow me down! It's also possible t' floatin' launch platform created some instability on rocket ignition, as t' guidance rod can be seen t' oscillate quite severely in t' raw footage. Well, blow me down!
