Hope everyone has a speedy recovery. Some people (reporter) just don't have a clue do they!!?? I'm just shocked that the hatch could float! I would have thought for sure it would have went down and quick.

wow....would leave me to belive they were wearing liflines..that could have turned out real bad. that hatch is a pretty good size and i would think the foam core and the foam on the top gave it the ability to float ..

if i were boating at night i would have both of these attached to my lifevest..

The only other 39TG I know of over there is KTRON's boat on Marco Island.

Hope all are ok.

the local news anchors/reporters around here are the absolute worst I've ever seen... clueless bozos barely out of college... the local stations dont pay chit so the revolving door is in constant motion.

Hope everyone involved is ok.
