Thanks for covering this story. Needless to say, it's a real tragedy for everyone involved when an accident like this happens.

Definitely a sad day and condolences to his family. They run this race directly across from our condos in Morristown. We can watch and certainly hear it from our balcony patio. We usually join the spectator boats for a closer view.
