@skyhighZJ dagumit man…

I’ve been geeked out on this last couple of days. I’ve listened to the coastguard calls, the calls from the other boat. I’ve read countless things. Hell aside from driving around to meetings and dragging some equipment around today, this was all I did.

Watched some of the memorial and listened to a guy who wrote a book about who’s the folks were. Probably a good read. One dude was 22 and went out to make some money but got a letter leaving from his lady that she was pregnant. He got a letter out with a wad of cash saying to go buy a ring so we can go to the courthouse she I get back and not to worry. She never remarried and the kid was there listening.

Captivating shit dontcha know bud!

I’ve got my opinion of what happened and look forward to explaining it ensuing conversation one day soon.

Thank you!

That is the dude that spoke at the memorial and told a few accounts of the actual people. That’s got to be a great book!
