NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) - It was one of the most memorable sites caught on camera during Hurricane Irene. The Coast Guard rescued two people from a sailboat at 9th View near the Ocean View fishing pier in Norfolk.

Thursday night, police arrested the sailboat owner, Michael Calabrese, for a second time since that incident. Calabrese is accused of being drunk in public. He also reportedly defecated in the back of a police car.

Calabrese met with the Coast Guard and city staff at the site where the boat washed ashore during the storm. According to Norfolk spokeswoman Lori Crouch, Calabrese appeared to be intoxicated, but denied it. There were beer and other alcohol bottles strewn on the beach nearby.

Coast Guard personnel asked Calabrese what his plan of action was to remove the badly damaged sailboat from the beach. He reportedly said he wanted to dig a pit from the boat to the water and then tow the boat to Cobbs Marina. The Coast Guard told him this was not possible, as the vessel was not seaworthy.

Calabrese then agreed to have a detailed plan to the city by noon Friday explaining how he would manage to load the boat onto a trailer for towing instead.

Sometime after city and Coast Guard officials parted ways with Calabrese Thursday night, Norfolk Police arrested him.

This was Calabrese's second arrest since the August 27 rescue. Calabrese ended up behind bars after he was arrested for allegedly being drunk at a hurricane rescue shelter.

In addition, a judge issued Calabrese a citation to remove the boat from the beach, giving him a September 5 deadline.

I have a feeling that this man has had better days, ya know? Of course, if he wasn't an idiot to begin with, he wouldn't be in this situation!

Since we aren't going to get any rain, let's have some coffee on the patio.
