Boat capsized
 

Reported on the local news: Boat capsized, people in water / on islands / rocks off Little Compton. Sounds like fishers

Hope they make out OK.

Yikes.

IT CAN ROLL BIG ON SOME OF THE SUBMERGED STRUCTURE OUT THERE. EVEN A LONE WAVE ON A NICE DAY CAN CREEP UP BEHIND YOU IF YOU ARE IN THE WRONG SPOT. I THINK IT WAS CHARLIE SOARES WHO WROTE ABOUT BEING OUT THERE WITH BUDDY IN ANOTHER BOAT WHO DID NOT MAKE IT BACK.

I hope they are OK.

Every time I hear about a small boat going down, I re-live my experience on July 26th, 2008. Luckily, I was alone and just had to worry about myself.

The thoughts make me sick to my stomach.

Be safe, even the calmest days can become a nightmare in a heartbeat.

You're right. I remember reading about that in OTW not too long ago.

Hope it's nobody I know

Every time I hear about a small boat going down, I re-live my experience on July 26th, 2008. Luckily, I was alone and just had to worry about myself.

Recently, at low tide I saw the remnants of an old outboard motor in the rocks in the vicinity of your misadventure . . . just suspecting it may have come from your boat.

2004 Yamaha 200 hp, 4-stroke. I bet she had a bit of growth on her.

That was a very bad time in my life. Thankfully, I have learned a lot about living without substance abuse.

2105 days sober!
