    I wonder what happened to that yacht      Transport  Must have been sudden for the crew not to abandon ship fast enough to deploy the life raft, Looks like the keel broke off too,
    Experianced crew would have been ready in bad weather to bail out i would have thought,
    Nobody left on board according to the coast guard, Would they have survival suits on ?
    transponders and all that stuff, very strange,
    Could understand it if it was Vince, Captain Calamity  Missing yacht crew 1498946960

    I think when the keel broke off, it's damaged the hull and the water's got in...Vince will tell us the correct version of events when he casts his salty eyes over it... Missing yacht crew 3025408739

    I had a good sleep. Patsy has gone to a wedding today but she made my toast in bed before leaving.
    Anyway, about the yacht, what I can say is it has suffered terminal failure! Not uncommon in these racing boats. Even the modern Jenneau cruising yachts look flimsy to me. Luckily I cant afford one, mine is built like a brick shit house (and sails like one) but do I care? Nah, if it can go from one port to the next in 12 hours I am happy bunny.
    The crew had happy lives with joy and adventure in their hearts, drowning doesnt hurt.  Missing yacht crew 3481995571
