Sincere thoughts to all. Tracy

CAPTAIN CHUCK

So sad to hear.

I have said this numerous times on this board and I always get pounded for saying it but it is the truth....

If running at night at over 10 mph a radar should be a mandatory piece of equipment.


RIP........

Just saw this on our local news up north...horrible to hear about! My thoughts and prayers are with the familes and friends of those lost.

Very sorry for those families involved I worked all weekend which was a lousey way for me to start summer, but came home to find this ... sucks. Captain and people on board have been identified in an article I was reading, here is the link.

We just had a thread about what booze people carry on board their boats. What was described and consumed, was anything but "moderation". At the speeds these boats go, I don't think the skipper should be consuming any alcohol.

My condolences to the families of those lost.

Very sad start to the summer, I won't go out of my way to run at night if I don't have to.

From the pics it looks like he hit it pretty damn near square, with no deflection. A sudden stop from even 20 mph can do enormous amounts of damage to a flying human body. Let's not rush to judgement, there has been nothing about alcohol use in the news.
