Florida Boaters Rescued: 7 Treading Water For 20 Hours Found Off Florida Keys
The details of this disaster aren't entirely out yet, but it's a miracle that there weren't more casualties!
Who would let a 4 year old on their boat without immediately strapping on a life jacket? (!) Not to mention having them readily available for everyone else.

No big deal to them . The last time they were boating there was 28 people in the boat with no life jackets and they were in the straits with 20 foot waves and the old russian truck motor conked out on the boat they built out of old walkin coolers.

Let me guess....these idiots went out during the small craft advisory and gale force winds this weekend. Sorry, but this is what happens when stupid people do stupid sht. It's terribly sad that someone had to lose their life to this stunt.

I never attempt to go out without checking the weather first for the intended day of departure, and the next day or days, before deciding to go out.

It was nasty here all weekend. Saw that story yesterday but here's one that's much worse.

First year I think I've missed Columbus day Regatta.
Bad weekend in south Florida.
