Sad. Prayers to the family.

I’ve followed what has been reported the last couple weeks. The bow anchor line appears to be out. So, I don’t think they were thrown overboard while underway. With anchor line out, seems to me they were bottom fishing. Maybe one of them suffered a heart attack or medical emergency and fell overboard. The other one grabs two life jackets and jumps in to save the other. Current to strong to get back to boat and pulls them farther away. Just my guess.

The coast guard swimmer put the anchor down. Boat was in gear idling when they found it. Search was called off days ago. RIP

I didn’t know that. Missed that in reporting and I’m not on fartbook to follow there.
