OMG, that's awful Dave!
I know of a 36 spectre that hangs out at Shell a lot, but never got to knew the guy. This is terrible news.

Thanks for the update. How's everyone else who was involved?

From http://www.baynews9.com/site/content/32248.html

A man is missing after a boat accident Sunday on the Tampa side of the Gandy Bridge.

The 34-foot boat flipped while traveling at high speeds with another boat south of the bridge. Two females and a male were on board when it flipped.

The females were rescued and are being treated at Tampa General Hospital. The search for the male, who owns and was driving the boat, continues.

Tampa Fire Rescue, the Coast Guard and other agencies are participating in the investigation.
