Strictly a guess, but it seems to explain things. In all cases I have to agree with Lunberslinger... ya gotta be careful...especially in times of emergencys.. make sure you know what you are doing.

Exactly OZ... I'm very sorry to hear about these losses. Every tragedy is just that... a tragedy. So sad to hear reports like this. That said, I won't be surprised to learn that one or more of these accidents are related to alcohol and to make matters worse, because of accidents like these, it won't be long now until it will be illegal to have beer on your boat. Enjoy your freedoms while we have them...
