[Sad....yet what was he doing out in the ocean at 3am?]
Living his life and having a good time as 20-something’s often do. Nothing wrong with that.
What a horrible tragedy.
Nope. And obstructions are hard to see and unforgiving.
Like a fish out of water....and now, apparently, breath...
There was no alcohol found at the scene, but that doesn’t mean they hadn’t been drinking. He was not the driver of the boat.
Ooooh,God-———dreadful.

Boat was a fishing boat so maybe fishing?
Strikeout ratio was better than ever too.

Equip was working too well.

Well, the reporters would not know the difference.
Always keep your soul prepared. You never know when God wants it back. Sad to see.
Great post.
Fishing is great at night sometimes. I grew up in West Plm Beach. I started fishing off of the Lake Worth Pier every Saturday morning, and then at night when I was a teenager. No matter how many times I fished there, the Cubans always out fished me.
