A stranded sailboat off the shore of Stinson Beach has been stuck in the sand for more than a month.

It happened after the end of a temporary restraining order, issued by a federal judge, giving the boat's owner time to remove it. He had until Monday after being granted an extension from the original Aug. 31 date.

The boat's owner, Logan Walker, lives on the boat and says he was sleeping with the boat on autopilot when it crashed on Upton Beach, just north of Stinson Beach, in late July.
