Too bad. But they are young, healthy, also saved their dog, so they can start their lives over.

I hope Jimmy Buffett notices this story. He might make them whole and feature them on this summer’s tour. It seems a natural.

I don’t know anything about sailing. Something tells me they didn’t either.

So they sunk their life savings in a boat.

Sorry to hear. Hopefully they’ll save up again and buy a bigger boat. Godspeed to their next adventure.

The Good Lord created something called “Insurance” for some reason. Apparently this couple has never heard of that miracle of business entrepreneurship.

If they had two brain cells in a row the boat was insured, but somehow I doubt either one of them have two brain cells in a row.

So they sold their house and car and only had $5,000 from it, which they decide to use to buy a boat, for which they don’t get insurance.

This doesn’t begin to pass the smell test. This is a likely fraudulent attempt to get sympathy from the public.

“sold everything they owned”...

Apparently sold the part of their brains that says “buy boat insurance”...

Welp, they sound stupid.

They hit something in 8’-9’ of water? I’m guessing submerged pilings that are charted.

Had some bad luck combined with inexperience. Hope they learn a valuable lesson from this.
Typical millennials though.
