Default Rough water but ring #19

I headed to the beach bright and early this morning only to arrive to huge breakers. Took one look and left and instead of just calling it a day hit my inland beach that was calm. A lot of junk and ring # 19, If you have been following my ring count somehow I messed up on my count all I know when I just counted them I have 19 so this is ring # 19. I found two like this already one was 14k the other 22k too bad it looks like this one has nothing but it's a ring.....

And no I couldn't find the boat that lost that plug lol.....
