    The “authorities” are going to use Bayesian Analysis?

    Bayesian yacht? What's the chance? What are the odds?

All those important financiers, etc... on board...

    I just looked up that term and now I feel like I know even less than before I looked it up. No wonder I never majored in statistics.

    Wasn’t it supposed to be just a three hour tour?

    From what I hear, that should buff right out.

    70% of all water deaths/drownings involve the lack of flotation devices or the improper use of flotation devices.
Hubris: the boat is unsinkable.
Me: A ferry boat captain (9th anniversary this year) on an alpine lake at 7,700’ with ocean-like conditions (4’-6’ whitecaps), predictably occurring, almost every afternoon.
On one occasion, during a violent thunderstorm, I had 35 passengers under my responsibility, wherein I conducted an evacuation from one shore of the lake to the other shore, evading the storm until reaching the intended destination, taking an hour to cross the lake, due to the weight constraints, where upon at arrival, all hell broke loose.
Beware, is - to - be - aware.

    I warned them the weighted factors were too heavy, but did they listen? Of course not!

    10 crew/12 guests (big problems)
Me, 2 crew/34 guests. (no problems)
I’m reminded of the scuba diving boat with a large number of guests that perished when the boat caught fire. This happened near the Catalina Islands. All of the crew escaped. WTF!
Protect your charges!

Indeed. The first and main objective.

    Captains have large privileges and large obligations.
NOT an easy position.

    I’m also a former parachute rigger, US Army heavy drop, up to 38,000lbs, and US Air Force, F-4s, and F-16s (ejection systems).
Tremendous satisfaction in running a boat, wide open... across an alpine lake.
My boat would take a concerted effort to sink, but a fire would change the dynamics instantly. Ever vigilant.

    Are they looking for scapegoats?
