Sorry to hear that Chuck I hope he still left the insurance on her. Well at least you had some excellent fishing and some great memories.

Having lost a big boat myself I know this is a sad day, but I think you are right about when and where it happened.

Sorry to hear Skunk, I agree with Willy, glad she didn't go down with y'all on board offshore. Keep us posted with any details of the salvage operation and what might have caused her to sink.
